Well guys, the string of glitches keep coming.
![Undecided :-\](https://forum.classicmotorworks.com/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)
I have watched the video on the O2 sensor andhad planned to it those tests this week. I had some work and then was quite sick when it got super cold, so I did not fiddle. I did run it, but anyways, yeterday I got suited up to go do a table read for an upcoming screen play, and had a bad moment on the way to the forum.
This bike has always been sticky about shifting when cold, but I put that down to British Bike. It was unsually difficult though, and I had to shift down, ansd it simply wouldn;t budge, usually popping up a gear and then back down works but this time I had to put some real pressure onto it, and it popped and went flop. I tried to pul it up with my toe and it popped back into gear, but WAY lower, and I basically got bucked from the bike and went down.
The windshield took the brunt of it it and the left side of the bike was kept undamaged, and I fell clear. I haven't come off a bike in over 25 years, and that was fooling in the dirt. I was completely armoured in this case, because it's cold.
Only, now I have a bike that acts like it is neutral, with a flopping shift lever, een though pulling it up had some clicking going on.
I did some research on the site and see that the fork mechanism can be kind of sloppy, and the tab can actually jump out. Best case scenario is remving the side plate and resetting it and adding some washers for a more snug fit - it did always have play. I am assuming worst case scenario is a damaged tranny. I am worried because it is rolling as if in neutral, but I am not sure that it is. The shift lever comes to the left quite far, but not out, so something solid is still there.
The easier stuff I am sure the local guys can fix. Actually I could but I don't have a good place right now. The complicated stuff it will probably need to be driven down to the dealer. What's you best guess from what you more experienced guys have seen?
TIA as always.
