In this paper we use an example of Mukai to construct semistable bundles of rank 3 with six independent sections on a general curve of genus 9 or 11 with Clifford index strictly less than the Clifford index of the curve. The example also allows us to show the non-emptiness of some Brill–Noether loci with negative expected dimension.
