Sorry to hear that brother

Here ya go

OK, bike is apart now. Rear end did NOT shit the bed! My cousin, Sam's 2815 R3RX has only 20K miles!

Outside of final drive:

Inside of final drive: see 360° gouge damage around aluminum case?

Inside of final drive close up: Gouge went clockwise and locked up at 6 o'clock

Rear wheel drive was the culprit. One nut came unwound, not off due to proximity of the housing (stud is bent)

More to come later . . .

He don't need the whole bike, but grasiass for the offer, Amigo! ;-}

[Tripps]

That sucks.

[1olbull]

One of the dealers is going to contact Triumph for a extended warranty on account of this should never have happened.
We'll see. In a little crunch to get it back running for the July 8th ride to Spearfish.

Moral of the story........Don't ride around with a loose NUT......

Groaner!!!

Coba, from Australia had a rear wheel lock and sadly, he did not survive, glad your cousing was able to control the bike!!

[1olbull]

VERY fortunately, he had slowed and was preparing to turn into his driveway when it happened.

Sounds like a code brown moment

[1olbull]

We have the rear wheel parts on order.
Can not get the final drive assembly in time for the Spearfish Ride.

Does anybody have a decent used final drive they could sell???

Would someone check on the "X" forum for me???

[Rocket Scientist]

Unfortunately I don't. It will have to be from a roadster (2010?) as they are a heavier duty unit than came on the earlier models. Hope you can find one.

[1olbull]

Thanx for the response, Amigo.
BTW - Please tell Melissa to get her "Boss Voice" in condition for Spearfish, I will again need her help.

[Rocket Scientist]

I'll be sure an tell her 🤣

1olbull I'm sorry I I do not have any roadster rear ends either. I'm thinking in my condition I could even lift one to hand it to you.

Warpo,
Gratitude for your response, Amigo.
I hope you are healing and improving.
I have had two responses, one from Barbie Kevin ((Widowmaker) and from Lon (Dealer).
Hopefully we can hook one up and get the X ready for Spearfish.
Wish you were coming to Spearfish and I wanna another drag race, this time on YurMama! 😋
