1100GS gearbox question - in Pakistan
Salam fellow riders,
I got last November a beautiful 1100GS 1999 to travel from Germany to India. The "alte lady" has around 135000 and was kept very well by her previous husband (a BMW mechanic). He said the gearbox has already been changed (some good years ago).
As usual, this not so beautiful part was making lots of noises during shifts (especially 1 to 2 and 2 to 3). But now that I'm in Pakistan, it started having more often false neutrals (also on high gears, which would't happen before). For those with experience with this gearbox, is this a sign of something bad coming (meaning should I find a reasonably good mechanic and open it to check), or it will continue to work like this? Is there a specific sign I should look for?
Shukriya!
Jacques
