Hi
Ok how do I explain this ??? Got the engine back. Put the engine back in the bike. Put the shifter on (and everything else). Now the gears seem to have moved. First used to be when the lever was all the way down. Up passed neutral to second and 3rd ect. up from there. Now neutral is at the top and the gears go down from there.
WTF! Any idears?
Sounds like a combination of the bike being in an unknown gear and the gear shift hardware being installed on the wrong spline. Get the bike into known neutral and then install the shifter hardware so that the shift lever is comfortable for your foot.
QBS is on the right track, you have part of the shifter linkage flipped. pull it off look it over. you have something ''up'' instead of ''down''.
Doh" Thats so simple I cant believe I missed it. :o

Thats MotoGP style shifting it sounds like, lots of R1/FZR guys switch to it b/c they feel its easier to hard riding
great idea! i should try it myself :P
Before I had the sprint, my monster was always gp shift. I much prefure it. But I couldn't switch the sprint and moving from one bike to another caused havic. I find i miss less shifts with revers shift pattern.
