im not sure if i can explainn this very well, as i am not very good on the mechanical side yet.

but whenever i change into third gear its just a constant rumble. the bike doesn't seem to settle properly like it does with other gears.

as i haven't had the bike long, i am worried something could be wrong.

am i worrying over nothing?

Probably not I'm afraid. On my TZR there's absolutely no difference in feeling between any of the gears, so sounds like somethings going Thumbs Down

One thing you could check (its a longshot though) is your chain tension - If its too loose you could get similar symptoms as I had a similar experience a while ago.
