Gears

[NIGHT RIDER]

hey guys i recently bought a 125cc semi auto mini dirt bike and its going great, there is only one slight problem regarding the gearing.

i start off in first gear, obviously then when i change into second it jumps into neutral. its doing it quite often i just cant work it out. :?

anybody have this problem before or have any advice.

any advice would be greatly appreciated.

cheers stephen

Still doing it? it did ok yesterday, i think it needs to wear in then the gears should go fine 8)

 

[NIGHT RIDER]

yeah i know when we rode yesterday it was fine but i rode again today in the garage lol and it still did it. dunno confused. it only does it sometimes. :?

 

[NIGHT RIDER]

Also i thought it could be what u said bout wearing in but then i remembered that it didnt do it with yours when i rode it.

 

[Dirt Bikez & Pocket B]

we have same bike and mine didnt do it . very strange . wtf is going on lmao :lol:

 

[NIGHT RIDER]

i just rode again for roughly half an hour and it didnt do it once lol.

[NIGHT RIDER]

lol yeah i know. na i sort of worked out that if i hold the gear down a little longer while i change it doesnt do it.

 

[Dirt Bikez & Pocket B]

[Dirt Bikez & Pocket B]

[NIGHT RIDER]

and also how much of it do i need my instruction manual doesnt tell me how big the sump is.

 

[Dirt Bikez & Pocket B]

just mark out wat level your oil is now on the dipstick with a permanent marker, and fill up oil until the marked spot is hit 8)

 

[NIGHT RIDER]

yeah i could do that but i want to know exactly how much i need to put in.

 

[Dirt Bikez & Pocket B]
