HI all
I have a launch model so 2013. For some time now as I take off from a standstill it has felt like something elliptical has Ben taking up the slack. Hard to explain but a sort of cyclic wobble only when I let the clutch out. Last night it seemed a lot worse with a sort of knocking noise as well. So this morning put it on centre stand, started it and put it into gear. There is a grinding knocking noise and you can feel a horrible vibration from around the bevel box!

so I decided not to drive it to the shop and green flag is picking it up.
Just checking with the collective that I am not just hearing feeling backlash as there is no load? Because now I am staring to question myself. But
any problems with the uj would be at the front. I can see that when on the stand it is at an angle but even still it has to cope with that and anyway you feel the front and it is quite smooth put your hand on the back and it is terrible. Knocking graunching and feels like it wants to escape. So much so at one point I took my hand away so that when it exploded the shrapnel did not get my hand.
I can see a discussion with triumph as the 'exteneed' warranty from head change (they also changed the final drive they said) ran out in April?

I'm not sure I understand you correctly, but you say any problems with the universal joint would be at the front. There are two universal joints - one at the front of the shaft and another at the rear next to the rear bevel box.
Apologies if I misunderstand your description. Hope this will help.
