Sorry to hear of your troubles. Wow that is something and a 1st from what I have seen on a new one at least. Hope it gets straightened out soon. Oh and welcome to the site that power addicts cling to.
I have just done some extensive research and changing my clutch setting to 4 from 1 helps my shifting issues. On setting 1 (closest to the handlebars) I can pull the clutch in while keeping the throttled on and the engine does not rev for at least a full count. On setting 4 it behaves much better.
That is a bit strange limey4life but not impossible is suppose. Find it kind of impromptu with the shortage of miles but if they say it needs it who am I to question. Sorry you had the trouble right out of the box. They will fix it. Welcome
hi to all . picked up my r3 last week. also have a boss hoss trike with a 350 it is flamed and I have it on ebay now.I just took my r3 in for the 500 mile service and they told me the engine has to come out and be torn down to cure some shifting issues.Is this common?guide me " O " wise ones....... thanks
Yup you can thank your fellow countryman for your problem, now my Rocket is a 2005 and not one bit of trouble, I quite beleive the guys at the factory knew that a Scot was buying the bike and to stop me going over and sticking a wellie up where the sun does not shine they took extra care building mine.
