The dealer needs to get off their ass and drop the oil pan. You need to talk with the Triumph rep and start pushing.
This is a classic example of why I won't go to the dealers for anything!

As I recall the 20K service isn't all that much. They already have to change the oil obviously, so there isn't a whole lot more to do. Check the manual and see what's involved.
BTW, go buy your oil someplace and take it to them. Otherwise they'll charge you way too much.

Looks like Triumph is finally starting to get off the pot so-to-speak. here is the email they sent me:
DENNIS,
TRIUMPH HAS GIVEN US THE OK TO START DISASSEMBLING TO LOCATE THE BROKEN OFF END OF THE SPRING. A WARRANTY PRIOR HAS BEEN STARTED AND THE LABOR TO DISASSEMBLE WILL BE COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. THE BIKE WILL GO BACK ON THE RACK LATE THIS AFTERNOON. I WILL SEND YOU, AND TRIUMPH, OUR FINDINGS.
THANK YOU,
KRISTINE

Want to See the Parts
I also want to see the spring and the broken-off piece of it before I sign-off on this job. I need to know they got that piece out of my engine or tranny. Hopefully I will get that call from Thiel's this week that it's done. Wednesday will be 28 days without a motorcycle in my garage.

Pocałuj mnie w dupę
easy find if its not in the front of the engine and sump I would drop the sump it will be there its too large to go thru the two screens if it make it there.
below is a shot of the front screen right under the filter
it has a cover on it as with the one in the rear under the outpt drive helical gears.
there are two of the little pockets that also catch debris and never get drained during a oil change
the front one under the clutch basket
the rear one is on the right rear as you sit on the bike
the only other places it could get rapped is in the casting troughs
Hope this helps ease your mind a bit

Thanks for the Pictures
Those pics will help me or some other owner whenever this pesky detent spring should ever break again. As for right now it's the dealer's turn to do it under that two year drivetrain warranty. I won't need to see the separated bottom oil sump cover at his shop this time, just the broken spring and the piece of it he removed just to make sure he removed it. I'm not taking any chances.
