Bye bye first gear...help!!!
« on: June 27, 2011, 08:30:53 PM »
Whining, grinding and a brief stall on the highway at 80 on the 350f. I pulled over, but the bike magically recovered. I made it to my destination, but apparently have no first. I can't even get to neutral. What do you think?  Should I attempt to drive it home?  45 miles on the highway.

Sounds scary as hell to me on Bay Area freeways, but I'm no tranny expert.
