Hello All,
Lately ive been having issues with the trans not going into second gear (sometimes third but rare) or it goes from first to Third.
When going from first to second i somehow find neutral but the light wont come on. if i down shift it goes into second. if i up shift it goes into third. At first i thought it was my bad shifting since im new to motorcycles but i had my buddy ride it and he was having the same issue. i tried adjusting the clutch cable but things only got worse before they got better. after that headache i feel like the clutch engages and disengages better than before. but since the clutch adjustment, there are times where i go from first to third. im starting to think the transmission along with the clutch will need to be taken care of sooner than later.
im having a hard time looking for a DIY write up for this procedure. i have a service manual that came with the bike but its not very detailed. also whats a good place to find transmission and clutch parts from?
