yuan gearbox/clutch problem

[dgo1212]

Having a couple of problems with my gearbox and possibly my clutch,my commute to work is nsl back roads so i thrash the knackers off my bike to keep up with the traffic,occasionally in 4th it has like a clutch slip feel to it but it's very sharp and lasts less than a second,it's as if the clutch has been pulled in and released very quickly,could this be a gearbox problem and not the clutch?Also sometimes going from 2nd to 3rd the gearlever gets stuck and i have to stamp the b4stard down then up again,could the problems be linked?

hi,
the gearbox on these engines dont like serious abuse.
(once the g/box goes your as well getting another complete engine, lol)
regular oil changes with mineral oil & being a bit more gentle & adjusting the cluch regularly, is the only way to avoid gearchange issues, im afraid.
cheers,

Cheers,has just started jumping out of 2nd aswell,will change oil more often and try get it to hold up till November as insurance runs out and i'll probably get shut of it(gonna buy myself a Varadero for xmas anyway lol)
