[QUOTE="KDXTrreme, post: 532142, member: 25490"] Well, I was riding at the track yesterday when all of a sudden I had no 1st gear. All the way down was neutral!! The shifter felt as if it was trying to shift, it would go down but would not engage 1st gear. I let the bike cool off and tried it again. Everything was OK until I couldn't shift out of 2nd, no 3rd, no 1st or neutral. After going over a few bumps it started shifting again but it was very clunky and sometimes felt as if it didn't want to go. It seemed like going over bumps and shaking the bike around would make it start to or quit shifting. There were no horrible sounds coming from the transmission, nothing out of the ordinary KDX noise. It finally stuck in 1st and the day was over. I let it sit at the truck while I rode my buddies YZ250 (holy crap!, FAST) and when we went to load it up it still would not go into neutral easily. It took a few minutes and rocking back and forth in gear and it finally went. Sometimes when it would stick in 3rd I could press down on the shifter and it wouldn't budge, sometimes it would go all the way down but not shift, occasionally it would shift. When I got home I put it up on the stand and in neutral I spun the back tire. There is something knocking in the transmission. Everytime the front sprocket makes a revolution there's a KLUNK, this is much worse if I spin the tire backwards. I know it's time to rebuilb and replace broken parts in the bottom end :( Does anyone have any idea what has happened to me gearbox or have any tips or experiance with this sort of failure. I will be doing the repairs myself exept for splitting the cases, yes I have a manual and all the right tools but have never been in a gearbox. Thanks for any help you can give!!
