Bridgestone Recalls Exedra G850G Motorcycle Tires for Triumph Rocket III Touring

Bridgestone America's tire operation (Bridgestone) is recalling Bridgestone Exedra G850 G motorcycle tires, size 180/70R16 77H, sold as original equipment for model year 2008 and 2009 Triumph Rocket III Touring motorcycles.

The motorcycle to which these tires are applied develops very high torque and can cause torque-induced degradation in a body ply which may result in innerliner cracking that may lead to a slow leak in the rear tire.

1018 units are affected.
