OK folks, I just purchased this bike. I was reading up on the gearbox problems, and it sounds ominous. Mine has done 34k. If it has a bad build, when does it show? Can mine still fail at this mileage?
@34k everything is probably ok at this point. The driver can definitely mess up one of these transmissions and sometimes they might dislodge a circlip on shafts all by themselves. Hard shifts can get you, enjoy your new toy, drive it like you stole it just be easy on transmission, overall theyre pretty good.

When you consider the number of rockets sold I don't think it's a common prob ,sure it's happened to a few unlucky owners including some of our esteemed members on here . I've never been paranoid bout it myself but it's not nice when it happens . I notice that nearly every one it happens to either buys another one or gets their trans rebuilt . Thats the power of Rocket ownership
