Gear problems
Hi has anyone ever had any problems with second gear on their 400? Mine's a 89 import (twin discs) and is having serious problems with second gear. When it gets into second it seems to stutter then suddenly find power?

Re: Gear problems
If its in and out with no jumping then you got clutch slip but if its physically jumping then the second gear itself is knackered.

Re: Gear problems
My VFR400 NC30 occasionally jumps from 2nd to nuetral! Don't know whether its me or the bike?
It normally does it just after changing gear when i begin to accelarate quite hard
