So if you have not hear it before, I live in China and my options for maintenance and repair are seriously limited. I bought my 2008-R3T in 2012 and sold 3 other bikes the same year including my Ninja. The R3T is my commuter...my only way to get to work. 3 Months ago my clutch cable snapped and I had to park my bike. Lucky for me I was on the way to Perth on business, so I was able to get a new cable. I returned from AU and the next week I thought I popped my throttle cable. I did some reading and realized it could be the grip connections, not the cable. I checked and sure enough, it was the grip. Funny thing... when I bought the clutch cable I also bought new grips Lucky, huh?
But then within the next two weeks, my bike started popping out of second gear..and this time it is not funny!. I cannot do anything in second gear..nothing! If I can coax it into 2nd gear...and then give it some gas..it throws the bike into neutral. This is also dangerous for me if I am trying to power out of traffic, switch lanes in traffic, of if I am leaning in a turn.
Ok, so if anyone can tell me how painful this will be? I think i need to replace the whole gearbox..or second gear. I have no clue. Please offer me comments!
Thanks!
