I've had it before. I think I put it down to the battery terminal connections being loose.
The bike was having other problems as well though. I ended up getting a new one before things got too bad!

Does this mean you need to use the force through speed cameras?

Could it be a fuel filter problem? As I read people having similar problems like this and they changed the fuel filter and all was good.

welcome to the club
Are you going to do it yourself or get Triumph to do it ?
Might be worth checking the rectifier and battery as well .... they might appear to be good but you don't know what other damage it may have caused

Fingers crossed they've got it nailed and aren't chasing a red herring.

The electrics on those bikes aren't the greatest.
