On October 8th, Pirelli Tire, LLC announced a recall for several of the tires owned by the company. This recall applies to certain Scorpion Trail II, Metzeler Tourance Next, and Next II tires sold as replacements and for the Metzeler Tourance Next 150/70R18 M/C 70V tire, also tires that were installed as original equipment on certain Triumph motorcycles.
The safety concern is that the tire tread may separate, which would cause instability and increase the risk of a crash. Specifically, irregular tire wear may break the left belt reinforcement, causing pieces of thread to separate.
