Hi All.
I am the mostly happy new owner of an '09 Buell 1125cr. I am experiencing an intermittent issue with the shift from 1st gear to 2nd. The shift 'feels' normal but fails to make 2nd and I have to re-clutch and toe it again to get it into second gear. It goes in no problem this way and shifts normally thru the rest of the gears. The frequency of missed shifts is probably one time out of maybe 30 to 50 tries and it's only 1st to 2nd. I have no idea if I'm doing something different on those times..doesn't seem like it. Except for this problem, this gearbox is the smoothest shifting transmission I've ever had. I can find neutral easily once the bike is warm and shifting is effortless.
Any thoughts?
