Hello to all,
Today I was riding my 05 rocket up to Queensland which is about a 900km trip. I got 70km's from home riding. I was in 5th gear. I just wanted double check it was in 5th gear, when I went to check the gear lever was limp. I was unable to gear up or down, I was stuck in 5th gear. I have taken the bike to the triumph dealer where I purchased it from.
They reckon something has sheared off inside the transmission casing. It is approximately 15 hours work to remove the engine and fix it. At a 100 dollars an hour plus parts it is going to be very very expensive. I bought the bike 2nd hand with 6500 km's on it. I have kept it immaculate and serviced regularly by a licensed repairer. Can anybody offfer me some advice about any recalls triumph may have had in relation to this type of failure.
Regards
