I posted this link last week. It's the pdf document that outlines the
recall.

from page 8:
"Triumph's remedy is to offer to replace the original connector as
supplied as original equipment with the motorcycle, for a more robust part.
The original male dry-break connector fitted at the time of production
is made of carbon fibre filled Dupont Delrin and includes a radii of
0.1mm in the quick release groove.
The proposed recall condition part will be a modified male connector
including a radii of 0.5mm in the quick release groove, will not include
a dry-break mechanism and will be supplied in aluminium."

Yes, the document says "aluminium" not "aluminum." Which leads me to
suspect that the document was written by a Brit.
