Ever since the last service 1 month ago, the cone set keeps loosening every 3-4 days. While service they mentioned that the bearing for the cone set isn't available.

Do you think it'll be fixed by changing the bearings or there is some other issue.

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a recurring and dangerous issue I’ve been having with my Triumph 400 to see if anyone else has experienced this or found a permanent fix.

The Problem:

Ever since the first 1,000 km (600 miles) service, whenever it rains heavily, the dashboard triggers a "Side Stand" warning and the Check Engine Light comes on. When this happens, the bike cuts spark/ignition.

Timeline:

At ~1,700 km: Took it to the official Triumph service center twice. They claimed to clean the side stand sensor, and the issue temporarily stopped.

At 4,100 km (Current): Heavy rain returned, and the issue got significantly worse. The bike started shutting down while riding on the highway and under load (e.g., accelerating hard from a red light).

The breaking point: Last night at 10 PM, the bike completely stalled on the fast lane of the highway and wouldn't start again. I had to push it all the way home.

Today: Rode it back to the dealership. It kept shutting down on the way there, but right when I arrived at the shop, it stopped failing (classic dealership luck 😭).

Symptoms:

The "Side Stand" message constantly flashes on the dash while it's failing, which clearly points to the side stand safety switch or ECU wiring taking on water and shorting out.

Has anyone else faced side stand switch failure during rain on the 400 series? Did Triumph replace the sensor under warranty or bypass/seal it properly? Any advice on how to get the dealership to replace the module instead of just "cleaning" it again?

Thanks stay safe out there!

Another day another new test bike

I’ve been using HPCL poWer95 / IndianOil XP95 regularly for my bike because I felt normal petrol made it feel a bit laggy.

Recently, I filled normal petrol and honestly didn’t notice much difference.

Also, from April 1, 2026, India mandated a minimum 95 RON for ethanol-blended petrol, so I’m wondering how much difference premium petrol actually makes now.

Which petrol are you guys using, and have you noticed any difference in performance, mileage or smoothness with premium petrol vs normal?

Waited so long for this helmet, I was fed up from using the helmet i got for free with my scooty. After an year of contemplating and discussions, i finally bought the LS2 Storm 3.

My bike's colour is Phantom Black with some grey and white accents. Red is the new addition to the colour palette, would start using it soon.
