Motorcycle Repair - gear shifting


Expert: Mark Shively - 9/29/2006

Question
How do I get to the gear switcher inside the motor.on my 1998 rm 125 becase when you switch down or up it stays their how do I fix that problem.

Answer
Hi Ben,

I suspect a shift shaft linkage spring has broken or otherwise become un-sprung.

You'll need to get a copy of the Service Manual to learn about troubleshooting and repairing this problem.

There's too much to text to explain all that you would need to know and do. It's all in the manual. Use AllExperts after you have the manual and still need assistance.

View the shift shaft linkage and related components on Bike Bandit's parts microfiche: "www.bikebandit.com"

Once their website opens, click "OEM Parts" and then select the year, make, and model from the menus that follow.


Respectfully,
Mark Shively
