Q: Shift Gear problem !
#2
First off, don't do that, if I'm correct in assuming that you're downshifting to first to stop. You shouldn't need to do that except in the most extreme situations. Your bike will resist a downshift to first when moving unless you really jump on the shift pedal. Hopefully, your just kicking it into neutral when trying to shift to first. Now, if you were jumping into neutral when accelerating in gear, then you'd have a tranny problem- likely a broken tooth on one of the gears.

I shift into 1st on the move all the time. Coming up to a 'give way' where I'm not going to stop completely, for instance. Never even thought about it so I paid attention this morning. It felt no different than any other down shift in my box. I'd probably only go into 1st when I'm down to a jogging speed though.
We've all got different ideas I s'pose but I don't like to pull up in top gear, just in case I need to get the hell outta there in a split second because some **** is on the mobile phone and is going to run up my ****...Just a paranoid old ba5tard I guess.
My would be a bent or worn selector fork too (sorry). I think a busted tooth would make itself very obvious.
