Good day turned to poo

That's bad luck there @Wrecka at least it happened up here and not on your RDU trip ....
Sounds like an easy fix with your service

Mate might have to pester you in the near future to drop over yours and check the rear drive lube again , im still not keen to pull the rear drive apart myself

Geez, That's a bugger.
Should be covered under warranty - Unless they find a reason not to.....
It is odd how it just started to leak - looks like the gasket has moved.

Mate i wonder if it was when the bike went over off the side stand, it was running at the time ??

I have a cam cover seal you can have and replace if you cant get one straight away

If others have had issues too i would not think that is related unless the cam cover got a good knock on something.

Awesome mate i'll let you know how i go, hopefully Triumph Aus will have one, need to get washers and seals for the bolts as well

Yeah no marks whatsoever on the engine, just a standard fault by the sound of it.

Team Moto Springwood hooked me up , got plugs, gasket and bolt gasket/washers couried out for $200 , bust out the tools on Sat I'll be buying a good tension wrench as well so anyone got any tips for checking steering bearing tension ?

that must be a common problem as I blew three gaskets in 18months and in the end triumph put a new valve cover on as well as a new gasket.Tech put a straight edge on the front left side and it was warped.Get it thoroughly checked out before re-assembling it

 

[08nzrocket]

sorry tech checked the right side which was warped
