Just rang my dealer as I was supposed to have the first service on my ST
tomorrow.
He confirmed me that Triumph recalls all ST to have the crankcase bolts
replaced.
He told me that the quality of the steal used for these bolts is too hard,
therefore they can't cope with all
the engine vibrations and get loose. Bolts are ordered and my service is
postponed till they get them.

Check for oil leaking before taking your bike ..
