As I was errand-riding around town today, with a fair bit of starts/stops, I started to have some challenges going up to 3rd gear from 2nd. It feels like I've shifted, but stays in 2nd gear. When I pull in the clutch and try again, it goes right in. I have 350 miles on the brand new ADV model, and I'm confused and a bit frustrated. :jawdrop: Shifting down from 4th into 3rd is smooth... just up from second that there seems to be a snag.
I've been doing a gentle break in, never exceeding 5000rpm's. I haven't gunned it off the line very hard, but really driving it in a pretty gentle way. Just a little juice every now and then to get the rings heated up so they seat.
The oil is at the correct level and the shifter doesn't seem to have much play in it. There are no other symptoms.
Is anyone having a similar experience or have an idea for a fix?
I though of changing the oil and filter now, but haven't done so yet.
