Well, its now been diagnosed but not cured. It was not the IACV or the stepper motor and not operator error.

Mechanic says it is the clutch plates sticking, due to just suction or so he thinks, and this is why the revs hang only on low speed town riding downshifts. On the highway or on upshifts the greater forces easily overcome the sticking.

Unfortunately he said he cannot do much about it at the moment but will contact Triumph to see what they have to say about it. He isnt going to do any exploratory surgery under warranty to see just yet. In the meantime it doesn't hurt anything but is a real nuisance having to wait to gear down.

Hopefully in time it improves, but there's still 1 year of warranty left.
