Did your 2020+ Rocket 3 Instrument Cluster glass crack?

besides the possibility of been jumped by a kangaroo, what other similarities are between those cases? are those bikes stored in the garage and only outside when riding? or are used to commute and stay all day long under the hot always sunny days in Australia?

One observation so far: Only riders from Australia have reported cracked clusters.

Sounds like a real cluster fu**. The cluster cracks and we get fu****.

Both mine & my friends are the cliched ridden on Sunday mornings rides and garaged the rest of the time. Other than a few bigger rides where we toured for a few days that's it. They've certainly had easy lives otherwise.

Thanks mate! These bikes are meant to be ridden in all weather conditions. They are not meant to be kept in glass showrooms. If their clusters crack like that without any abuse then Triumph needs to be ashamed of themselves for crap build quality and then charging premium for the bikes. Shame shame shame!!!

I voted never but I've only had it 2 months and 1200 miles. I would hope not.

not related to the cluster, but i wonder, with all of the issues that some of these bikes have, is it related to where they are manufactured, Hinkley vs Indonesia, My GT was one of the ones from Hinkley, same as the TFC's and i haven't had any of these issues, except for the rear brake bleed, and i'm not even sure that, that was an issue on mine to begin with, I have had brake fade a few times, but i think it was more related to heat

How did you check if your bike was Hinkley manufactured? Any tips please .

Prolly doesn't make a lot of difference? The manufacturer just assembles a whole lot of jigsaw bits and the instruments used in both assembly plants most likely come out of the same box.

No explanation for crack dealer could not give a reason for it happening, A friend who has a later model than mine has the same problem his bike has less than 3,000 kms

Not a coccaine dealer, a triumph dealer! No wonder.
