strange gearbox occurance

Sounds like one of our resident gurus needs to expand their expertise into trannys (easy Jim...didn't mean you)
 
IT only takes 1 bad mistake and you can damage any gearbox so your bike was built correctly and your a good operator so keep on riding and enjoy

I've been estimated (note estimated not quoted) a similar price by 2 dealers here for what I suspect is a similar problem with my box.

gear box problems revisited !!

the chance of buying another roadster that develop the same transmission problem must be 1 in a thousand.. well folks I never win money at lottery but I have do get lucky with problems the same snapping problem I had with the 2013 roadster is now on my 2012 roadster I cannot believe my luck, it started this summer and although not as loud or stronger it is there I load the engine past 2500 up any hills and there it start snap........... snap ..,,,, in my crystal ball I can see another trip to the dealership in the spring overjoyed to spend another $2600 for repairs
 
Don't replace the gears have them back cut instead. It replace the shift forks etc
 

I feel your pain brotherman
 
I think I have a similar issue. I can feel something through the left footpeg when the bike is under load from second to fifth. It feels worse the more load I put on such as a passenger or uphill. Someone mentioned it may be a tune and maybe causing the issue. I sent the bike for a dyno tune and still has the same issue and to be honest doesnt feel any different, so that was a waist of a thousand bucks. What grinds my gears is that it is a 2016 Roadster with only 9,500kms. You would think any design issues would have been sorted by then. I would hate to think how much this will cost these days to rectify.
