Little Coolant, White Sludge On Oil Filler Cap

Bmwjay1000rr · Jan 31, 2024

Hi All
Basically just bought a brand new speed triple 1200rs, my second one......only done 31 miles on the clock and noticed there's hardly no coolant in the reservoir tank and took the oil filler cap off to find white sludge on the cap and In the oil???? Any suggestions
Many thanks
Jason

Take it to the dealers.

With only 31m on the clock I find it hard to believe it wasn't spotted on the PDI.

Just a guess but the mayonnaise is just condensation because the bike has been started but not run up to temperature and the dealer hasn't done the PDI correctly. As above take it back to the dealers and inform them that if it's not sorted you'll reject it under the consumer rights act 2015.

Did you buy it from Triumph Essex, whatever dealer you did purchase it from take it back ASAP, as littleade says that machine has not been correctly PDI inspected. I would also be concerned about the dealer carrying out any future servicing as well.
