Beautiful Colorado morning today so I got to ride in to work again. Got to work without a problem. Went to take a lunchtime ride and grab some grub and I think my second gear grenaded or more likely bent the shift fork.
When the bike is in second and I let the clutch out it just sounds like a bunch of rocks tumbling around in a coffee can. It's one of those sounds that if you have worked on mechanical things and vehicles most of your life, hurts your ears. Prior to today it would slip from second into neutral once in a while under hard acceleration, but I though it was because I wasn't shifting it with enough authority (as is a known thing I've read on these bikes).
Now I'm stranded at work, bike runs fine in 1st gear, MAYBE able to get it to shift past second in to third. All other gears work perfectly if I can get it past 2nd.
I have no way to get home and get my truck so I have to attempt to ride this thing.
Today is not a good day.
