2nd gear issue
« on: April 25, 2005, 11:10:21 AM »
A couple of times in the last week my bike has slipped out of second gear into neutral. Both times I've been almost coasting downhill slowing for a corner. After figuring out what had happened the first time I tried to recreate the problem and couldn't get it to drop again so I ignored it but today after a nice 300k country run it happened again.  

 so my question to you is, is this a sign of a major problem or just a gearbox quirk I can live with?

its a gj77a 250 btw.

Cheers, Rob

If you're sure you're gettting full and positve shifts into second and this is still happening, it's probably telling you there is a shift fork problem.
