Triumph 900 GT Pro

Just a quick update. The bike went in for diagnosis and they didn’t find anything wrong with it. It behaved itself on the next ride and then went for its 600 mile service.

The following weekend we set off for an overnight in Moffat and the same fault codes occurred again. This time the “Transmission fault” wouldn’t reset and the quick shifter wouldn’t work. It lost ABS, TCS and the speedo. After stopping for a coffee and searching the Triumph forums, it seems like a dodgy quick shifter is a common failure and throws up the fault codes. Switching it off in the settings menu cures the other issues until shifter is replaced. Once I did this the bike behaved perfectly for the remaining 350 miles of the weekend and was really good fun to ride. It’s going into the dealers today for repair…..

Any news? Mine had a new quickshifter for a similar problem. Bikes perfect otherwise.

My little Tiger Sport had a quick shifter problem. It was an aftermarket fitted Triumph one. It was changed and the one fitted was a different part number and I was told it had a different “strain sensor?” Inside.
To date, it’s been fine, but a search on the net reveals many problems with the quick shifter, with several owners having had them replaced several times.

The quick shifter was replaced under warranty and the bike performed flawlessly on a 150 mile ride afterwards. It still needs a few more rides to prove itself until I have full faith in it….
