I would like hear the experts (triumph's engineers) explain this one.
I know there those amongst us who think it's a missed shift issue or some such ... and it might be in some cases, but certainly not mine. And IF I'M TOO SLOW to accept there could be an engineering problem rather than operator error then we will have a sh1t load of r3 riders worried about shifting to avoid a problem that they have no control over anyway. Maybe it's a dodgy cir-clip that causes missed shifts??
@mr hunt I feel your pain!
In my case, the circlip was out, but no-one was really interested in investigating the probable cause. It wasn't even noted whether the circlip was correctly orientated.
I understand that there are time and cost restraints, but this was a perfect opportunity to make some sense of it all. If not only, to prevent a recurrence.
I haven't abused this bike, I haven't even missed a gear, so why, after only 10,000 miles?
However, I am very grateful to Triumph Birmingham UK, for their help and understanding and (most of

) the comments of advice posted here.
It's very close to the 500 mile oil change, so here's hoping for many more trouble free miles of travel


I have already purchased the Amsoil
P.S. How do you delete 'misposts'?
