All these problems with the "Fear Box" cannot be all from rider error or abuse,

Mine didn't, but I think @mr hunt 's did.
I suppose it depends on why yours is making a noise. If the circlip has come adrift (like on mine) then there's a whole Output Shaft just waiting to mess with your day
Take it easy

Well, I have made it to Branson MO, will be leaving for home on Saturday Morning. There is a dealership 30 minutes from where I am and I would leave it there and rent a car home.

Have to say, I love the R3R, not pleased at all with their assembly quality or even the engine now. 3700 miles and it tings so loud it almost drowns out the exhaust. Not sure if its lifters or what.

I will take it in and trust Triumph will make it right since I have had 4 months and barely road the thing.

thanks for all your help and advise.

My dealer is a great guy, great salesman, treats me right on parts, but as for having knowledgeable mechanics, uh uh. Problem when I picked it up everything they ever did, minor, but inexcusable, haven't been there for work in years. My buddy has 40 years experience as a motorcycle mechanic, used to have his own shop, dealer knows him, when he applied he offered him $12/hr, which explains why he has no good mechanics.

Warranty issues, sure, totally normal. Seeing the EXACT same diagnosis from vehicle after vehicle after vehicle, that's not normal, or acceptable.
