The left side is where your clutch and starter gears are located. Since your bike is very new ('08), I would recommend you take it to your dealer and let them sort it out. The factory may have goofed when they put the final assembly on the clutch basket or there could be something else in there that doesn't belong. This is what your warranty is for, IMHO.

No need to apologize for your English--it is much better than most of us would be at a second language, and better than some of our English.

Thanks for quick reply

i have visited dealer month ago , they compared noise from my bike with demo bike, and said demo bike and my one sound similar.also said triumph bikes are noisy. can this problem cause bigger, serious problem?

Also when i switch gears (usualy between 1 and 2) sometimes this become difficult and also is very noisy - specialy when engine is cold or very warm, is this normal?

thanks

No. Return to the dealer and open it up.

Nope-tell him you want it opened-and ride a few other bikes-see for yourself.
At the very least, get his statement in writing.
