This morning I was about to take my 2013 Trophy (with nearly 75K miles) into the dealer for the audio firmware upgrade. It was in neutral as I took it off the center stand and started to wheel it out of the garage. Suddenly it was in 1st gear and would not shift back into neutral. Thinking it was temporarily "stuck" in 1st, I started and rode the bike in the alley to see if it would again shift properly. Alas, no

The transmission is stuck in 1st and the bike will have to be hauled to the dealership for repair.
Thankfully this problem didn't occur this past weekend when I was 700 miles from home. Also thankfully, since January I have a second bike, a new 2015 BMW R1200GSA, which I will take on a lengthy tour this summer starting in 20 days instead of the Trophy. As that's probably too soon for my Trophy to be repaired, it will have to wait for my return in a few months. Thankfully I purchased a two-year extended warranty before my factory warranty expired this past January.
I'm curious whether anyone else has experienced a similar transmission failure and, if so, how long it took for the repair. Presumably the various potential causes in my case may be different from what others may have had.
