My bike(s)

Found 1 result

  1. 2001 Rosso Mandello. OK, I'm going to try to describe the problem. When down shifting, when letting the engine "brake", the bike will slow down and when I go to downshift I'll pull in the clutch and go to shift down a gear and the shifting mechanism is "jammed." If I blip the throttle I can shift down no problem. My mechanic suggested that the clutch needed to be bled, or that the it was over-shifting. And it might need shift springs. So I've bled the clutch and replaced the shift springs. Plus, if I were to prematurely pull in the clutch on an upshift I would get the same binding. It can't overshift in both directions? Warped pressure plate? It's a single plate clutch. If the bike is in gear, I can pull in the clutch and if I go to push the bike I can feel it overcoming the drag in the transmission, like the clutch is still engaged but as the coefficient of friction is overcome the bike breaks past the friction and rolls smoothly. Truthfully, I've replaced all three shift springs, gear box oil, and bled the clutch. I haven't actually finished putting it back together again but I'm not confident that these steps have fixed the problem. Thoughts?
