As far as Common S3 Issues I can add:

1. Poor seat construction -- already showing signs of deterioration/compression towards the tank after just 3000kms. Add to this the general lack of lateral support it gives. At time I think I need the protection of a ball-box!

2. The right-hand oil cooler bracket failed -- spot welding gave way. Still awaiting a replacement part from Triumph SA after some six weeks. Seems they don't have any in the country!

3. Throttle butterfly valves out of sequence causing engine rumbling at low speed. Dealers awaiting high pressure fuel connector & fly lead from Triumph SA. 4 Week delay so far...
