When the barnett clutch was put in there were...

    Transmission replacement

    I brought my 2006 R3 to a Triumph dealer to have 2nd gear replaced. (I've heard 2nd gear failures are a common issue up to a certain vin number of my year model). Anyhow, they pulled the motor and tore apart the transmission, I got a call today saying that basically the whole transmission...

  3. Hi...I'm new here. Noisy clutch question.

    My 2018 Triumph Rocket 3 Roadster, when shifting from 2nd gear to first gear, makes a weird whirring sound followed by a clacking/clunking sound and some slight jerkiness as it slows to a stop. I took it to the dealer shop for it's 10k maintenance and I asked them to test ride it so they can see...

    C-Clip failure...trashed transmission.

    Finally getting around to fixing my bike that exploded the transmission last fall. I was at WOT when it grenaded itself in third gear just when I shifted into 4th @ 6500rpms. Made a loud explosion then loud grinding noises when I was trying to slow down, the rear tire locked up when I got back...

  6. Transmission problems

    Hi, I hope someone can help me, I own a 2005 Rocket, and in the past months I have problems with the transmission of my bike. I live in Mexico, and this model is not common here, so finding parts is so difficult even with the brand dealer. One gear is damaged and I can't find it here, could...

    2006 Classic transmission

    I'm looking to buy a 2006 Classic with 22,000 miles on Tuesday. I'm buying from the original owner and the bike looks new and he says he's had zero transmission problems. Is 2nd gear a common problem of one that the internet has exaggerated? I know from being around forums no one reports zero...

    Transmission not engaging

    05 Classic. I put in a new clutch and detent spring. I have put it all back together. And it's not engaging the transmission. Will move to neutral, but when you click first at acts like it is going into gear. But it's not. Is that a clutch cable adjustment?. I replaced the cable also.

    Shifting question with regard to transmission problems

    Having read many threads about the problems with the transmission and the detent spring, one of the suggestions has been holding the shifter up/down until the clutch is fully released in order to help diagnose the problem. My question is would this be a technique that could keep problems from...

    Transmission question

    hey all, As some of you know I have recently bought a 2005 r3 turbo. It has recently had the gearbox repaired by the previous owner after smashing 3-4 (I think). It rides really good BUT. When initially engaging first gear it does not “clunk” then when releasing the clutch it feels like the...

    Bollocks - Transmission failure.

    Well seems like it's my turn. I think it's just the ruddy detent spring. I request diagnostics assistance/conformation from the iluminati. 10 miles from home - shifted up into 4th - and saw "0" on the Healtech gear indicator. Gentle throttle - no acceleration. Allowed it to slow and a gentle...
