Good luck fixing it. Hope it doesnt cost you too much. Trannys are the one thing I have never dealt with before so its all new to me. I have had 1 false neutral since I got the bike. 28 000km on it now.

If you plan on keeping the bike, and do abuse the tranny from time to time...Do yourself a favor and send it to R&D Transmissions in Florida. Tell them you want a nitrous/turbo racecut. That will be the longest lasting, sweetest shifting tranny you've ever had. They did tranny in my RR back in 02. It still looked new last time I tore it down (last year before I sold it to guy in Thailand). They cost a lil more than others, but do outstanding work. They magnuflux everything, then unlike other shops, they cut the dogs AND the window gears. Then they shim everything back to factory specs. I paid around 550 for mine. Worth every dime. Oh, and my bike only sees the dragstrip with an airshifter (and it did miss gears occasionally when spraying due to wheelspin). Just a thought...
