 Triumph 2010 thunderbird models have defective speedometers that stick often and at times are very erratic. in either case the vehicle's speed cannot be monitored by the driver. triumph has been aware of this problem for some time but they have not issued a recall and continue to sell these motorcycles knowing the speedometers are defective.
