| Description of the problem | Transmission shifting hard and loud shifting between some of the gears is extremely harsh and loud and can be felt through the whole bike, from my hands on the handlebars to my feet on the floorboards! It feels like a hammer hitting the transmission whether it is an upshift or a downshift. It feels like the transmission could shatter the next time i shift and possibly fail me sometime i will need it the most in the middle of traffic and cause me to get in a car accident! |
