WHEN RIDING BETWEEN 15 AND 40 MPH, SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR, THEN SHIFTING INTO THIRD GEAR, I FEEL VIBRATION AND NOISE INDICATIVE OF POSSIBLE INCIPIENT TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I'M FILING THIS NOW FOR FEAR I MAY NOT SURVIVE ULTIMATE CONSEQUENCE OF THIS, AS HAS HAPPENED WITH A NUMBER OF OTHER TRIUMPH ROCKET MOTORCYCLES WITH THIS SAME ENGINE/TRANSMISSION -- THAT WORST CASE SCENARIO WHERE THE TRANSMISSION BREAKS, LOCKING THE REAR WHEEL, AND PROBLEMATIC AT THAT POINT IF ONE STAYS UP TO A STOP, OR ONE GOES DOWN WITH LIFE AND LIMB AT RISK, TO THE POINT OF DEATH.
