Comfortablynumb Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Hi guys and girls, had a bit of a weird one.I've been making my usual commute, a couple of times I've been up shifting 3rd-4th and I could swear I felt the rear lock just for a millisecond enough to scare me. Could this be down to lazy shifting? I couldn't recreate it afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comfortablynumb Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 I don't believe so I checked and adjusted it recently, but I did have it in for its mot and had the tappets done since.I wouldnt of thought they'd adjust it but I'll double check tommorow.

megawatt Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Sounds like dodgy selector forks or worn selector drum. Try to be more positive when shifting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comfortablynumb Posted May 30, 2015 Author Share Posted May 30, 2015 Maybe lock up was a bit dramatic, more like a very sudden drop in power. gear box has been a bit funny since I got the bike, i have to make two half clicks from 1st to get it into neutral, (the n indicator light comes on after the first click but it's still in 1st gear).I'll have to get round to adjusting my gear lever hopefully that'll help.
