Gearbox issue? R1150GS 2001 non Adv
In the last couple of days, shifting down has become more difficult and I´ve started having to pull off from the lights in 2nd. Shifting up seems to be ok at the moment but it just doesn´t seem to want to shift downwards very easily which isn´t ideal although it does eventually.
The bike has 76,000miles on it and I´ve had no problems in the past. I also changed the gear oil about 4k miles ago, not with SAE 90 as I normally do but with a heavy 80w or 90w (can´t remember) oil. Is this perhaps the problem?
I also just read on UKGSer it could be a problem with the pedal linkage so will take a look at that.
Any thoughts much appreciated though.
