Bugger.

Had the bike all of two days and it's already proving to be a pain in the arse. I think it is trying to make up for its lack of attitude by giving me some trouble.

Motorway slip road, change up the gearbox into top fine. No strange noises, actual change was fine etc.

Try and drop back a gear to overtake. Nada. nothing, zero movement. Shit.

Stuck in top gear for the rest of the journey. Pulling away was fun.

It's a xj600n.

Looks like the Gixxer will be taking me to work, goodbye tyres.

Meh.

And same thing on mine. Good, I haven't just wasted a shit load of money.

Phew.
