Greetings! Obviously, I am new to this forum but let's start!
Welcome from Cape Cod. You have come to the right place. The guys here have more Rocket wisdom & technical experience than any dealer I know.
 
My 05's Output shaft bearing went at 90,000K. I changed the bearings and shaft myself but it is a big job, mainly to do with the weight of the rocket motor. Either the frame has to be lifted from the motor or the rear of the motor lowered to get enough access to remove the output shaft cover. I think in most cases the output bearings (2) could be swapped out and new gaskets and seal, without replacing the shaft and the cover. A few captains have carried out the repair with great results. I think it took me about 30 hrs of work being super cautious. Good luck
 
Well, thank you all for your reply's. I have had ZERO Problems until now, the output bearing and this is how I found this site - a GREAT web site too! I would like to keep her until I rundown the bearing and would do the work myself - it will take awhile but there is NOTHING wrong with the rest of this bike! I have run down the part number (thank you!) as mine is silver, T10000009 for the "Update Kit" only thing is NO-one has it. Most dealers/parts places show it on "back ordered"...will Triumph make more if the call is there? Does anyone have one sitting on a shelf collecting dust? Would love to hear from anyone if they know where I can get the part.
Thanks!

When I say that these last 3 days of owning my first R3 have been the best of my life I am exaggerating, but not much
