2018+ Speed Triple Rs - Those With A Quick Shifter, Who Is Not Having Qs Issues?

5000 miles, zero issues before or after recall.

 

6000+ miles and no issues.

 

2018 s model with quickshifter (same engine and gearbox) 5500 miles no issues.

 

Hi Dickie

I had all the issues, got rid at 2052 miles cos I couldn't take it anymore

 

The only problem is that you won’t know if you have one that works or not until it’s too late. Maybe you could take a bike for the day, then you would find out.

 

My RS was registered in March 2018 and hasn't had any issues during its 3,300 miles. The updated arm was fitted in October 2019 (ahead of the recall) as a preventative measure - after learning about the problem on this forum.

 

I’m envious

 

No issues with my 2018 RS at 2000 miles . I had the new arm fitted at its service this Feb as a precaution. There was some evidence that the arm was touching the linkage but I had no issues. Not been able to test the revised set up yet due to the lockdown.

 

Had mine since April 18, no issues at 7000 miles.
I used mine up and down from day one, had the arm replaced last month.

 

Good point - the arm was touching the body of the QS on mine too...it had the telltale score mark. It took five months to get the modified arm (while Triumph pretended the problem didn't exist), and I didn't use the QS during that time.

 

If it worked before then you will have no issues now. The root cause of the problem is not the shift linkage. Obviously Triumph still doesn’t know what the actual problem is. Triumph has no answers or any resolve for my situation. I’ve now just given up. Having said that, I wouldn’t trade my speedy for anything on the market that I’ve test ridden yet.

 

around 9800 miles and no problems

 

Dealer just put the fix on my yesterday

 

I've always thought the QS on the speed triple felt a little chunky. I only rode a short while after the install but autobilps (downshifts) felt smoother. Up-shifts I really couldn't tell, some felt better, 1st to 2nd still feels like a hammer on an anvil, but I really didn't get a chance to feel out 2-3 & 3-4.

Bike is a 2019 RS with 5,300 miles

 

Nearly 2000 miles on a 19 plate and sweet as a nut...hadn’t had the recall done yet either

 

Not necessary, but you may as well have it done.

 

No issues so far, but! I’ve only done 100 miles due to this bloody lockdown

 

My advice is to be very careful when using the quick shifter until you know if you have a bike that is affected or not by this issue. Have your hand on the clutch ready to pull it in and be ready to knock the throttle off. It only takes a few false neutrals with it slamming into the next gear to do severe damage to your gearbox. So be very careful.
