Drops out of 2nd on overrun but not under power.

It is UPGRADE time....thats one of the symptoms. :? that is cured with UPGRADE. Kit comes with new style 2nd gear from what local dealer told me. Mine goes in for upgrade in a week. :cry:

According to local dealer here, Triumph completely changed second gear design engagement to remedy a number of problems relating to coming out of engagement. The tech showed me the new style but did not have old one there so that I could see difference.

When mine started jumping out of 2nd (which happened twice in 3 years) I adjusted the clutch and it's been fine since.

Had a chat at a Triumph dealer yesterday while they had,nt any customers in and he was very helpful, even printing me off a copy off the latest Technical Service Bulletin which details changes made to second gear and dog ring and also a seperate update to first/fourth and fifth gears.
He stopped short of saying it is definitely the root of my problem however.
Basicly the changes are that second gear now has four windows instead of six and the dog ring now has 8 dogs for engagement instead of 6.
If anyone has the know-how I can scan the document and email it so that it can be posted on the forum where everyone can find it.
It also has part numbers for the kits and chassis number ranges they apply to.

My problem may or may not be related but I am going to have to take the box to pieces anyway, and will probably fit the modified parts while I am in there.

They had bike for 3 days and completed the "Upgrade", brought it in on Monday and was done on Wednesday, got the bike back clean and now works good , even the fuel guage works like it's supposed to now.

You lucky dog :x

Mine took nearly two months. They did a great job ... but it sure took a long time.

I haven't been reading the forum much, so I wasn't aware of this problem. My bike started dropping out of second under minimal throttle last week. I took the bike in today with two days left on my warranty. Do you think I need to contact them with any info on this "upgrade", or will they order the parts and get the improved ones?
I had no idea my warranty ended in 2 days! Glad I went today and not next weekend.
