Bike won't go into 1st gear!
I have a 2001 KX250. I had been running 10W 40 automotive oil. Last night, I switched to ATF type F. Today after I'd been riding for a couple hours, I noticed my bike wouldn't go into first gear! It would go into neutral. I rode for another hour or so, and it started working again! WTF?!? I hate things like this. It wouldn't do it again. When it was doing it, the bike would make a funny noise when I pulled the clutch lever in. Kind of a rattling noise. I'm baffled. The clutch has been making that noise off and on for a while now. Thanks for any info! Matt
