my 2nd gear is poping out. i just bought the bike from a buddy that i ride with he had went down on the bike and broke the clutch lever and the shift peg. i bought the bike from him threw the whole peg asmbley with shift linkage and a clutch lever and housing on it i took it out and its poping out of 2nd..

could it be that the shift linkage or clutch it not adjusted right? or is it some how a shift fork? it never poped out on him when we would ride......

also i noticed after taking it out that the oil is too full could that have anything to do with it?

2005 636

 

2nd went out in my 636, it was the actual dogbone that got rounded off, so anytime you are in second and try to put it under any type of power, it just slips out. find you a complete tranny, split the motor and swap em out.

 

^^ yep, what he said

 

636s had this problem specifically the 05/06 if you shift them softly, don't be scared to bang the gears lol

 

happen to me in first. i just got a whole motor once the motor mount went into the motor. haha

 

could it be anything else maybe linkage not adjusted right or clutch not adjusted right?

 

def nothin with clutch, if the shifter moves freely thru out all gears, not linkage/detent/shift mech. if just 2nd gear, most likely the gear/and or shift fork..ship motor to me... fix for $300 plus parts

 

yeah i didnt think it could be anything else but has to ask i have just never done tranny b4 i read another forum u can check the forks with out puling the motor just take off the clutch and pan and you can check the forks is this true ?

 

http://www.kawiforums.com/showthread.php?t=118245 this is the thread that says you dont need to take your motor out to check the forks and well it has step by step pics so ya anyone think i should just do this first incase its just a fork ?
