Hi Guys,
There have been some comments on the forum ( including me ) from guys with Gen 2 experiencing less than smooth gearshifts especially 1-2 & 5-6.
While it does seem to get better with more kays I came across this simple mod that really made an improvement for me.
I can't take credit for this - I thought I read it on this forum but I can't find it.
The bolt that attaches the gear lever to the shaft doesn't go all the way through & as a result there is a small amount of freeplay there.
I removed that bolt & replaced with one 10mm longer and inserted from the top side with a locknut.
That's all there is to it. Give it a try - costs bugger all & made for far more positive shifts for me.
Cheers,
Moz
