Hard to get into 3rd gear when heavy accelerating

gecco · Apr 19, 2011

The bike was fine before I stored it during the winter months.

Did an oil & filter change before the winter.

Now when going through the gears I'm unable to select 3rd without easing off the throttle first/reducidng the rpm.

Any ideas what might be wrong?

Do you have a Q/Shifter, if not you should be reducing rpm's anyway

Hi,

Your not alone, same thing for me only 5th-6th, stored away over winter, had a service early this year and my gearbox feels well different when under power from last year, it has got better, I tightened my chain and lowered the lever a little bit.

Yours should ease up too after a few miles, can't imagine why it would do this, not a great start to my biking season.

Good luck.
