Borrowed a mates triumph the other date, gearbox was mostly made out of half gears and neutrals. Only had 15k on it but felt awful, quickly had zero confidence in it staying in gear on any fast corners. Suspect one of the gear shift linkages being either too floppy or near seized was causing it to just jump between gears

Sounds like there is something not right, especially at 15k.

Am of the opinion that once confidence drops riding style/efficiency drops.

Yup for sure. As soon as you get 'crap is front tyre going soft, whoop, ooops, oh er', your best to just give up for the day as that confidence doesn't come back the more tired you get.

Massive lean angles on show here! Mate found it after going out the other day in the sun.
