RE: CANT SHIFT TO THIRD GEAR HELP PLEASE!!!!!!
Hi there, the same thing happened to me yesterday evening. I unloaded my CBR out of the back of my truck and it fell going down the ramp I use for my 4-wheeler!! I was riding it around and it wouldn't shift out of 2nd into 3rd and I'm thinking WTF!!! I looked on here for some answers and found your post. So I looked at mine and sure enough, the shift arm was bent in just like in your pictures. I'm not sure if this is an "authorized" repair, but I bent the shifter back out to straight, rode it around and problem solved!! Good luck!
