This loud clanging sound going into 3rd only happened rarely & now it happens all the time. It only happened for 1st once & never for the other gears. I adjusted the clutch at the handlebar lever & now not much slack left. Clutch does drag when stopped but I am assuming this is normal & always shift into neutral when at a light.
I've owned the bike for one month... my first Triumph.

This clanging can't be a good thing. I appreciate you sharing your experience.
Many thanks,
GulfCoastDave

Adjust the rear chain....................... it's clanging on the guard when it throws slack between changes.
