Re: Jumping out of 2nd back to neutral.
 

I never have any problems with the SV doing this but instead been having this problem with daytona 675. I have tried everything mentioned in this thread short of taking the gearbox apart. I know i can make it work if i shift more deliberately and slower, which is difficult to do when you are used to the suzuki gearbox. I do notice that the amount of force needed to move the shift lever on the daytona is much heavier than on the SV, must be a stiffer spring on it and this certainly doesn't help. Anyone who's seen the inside of a gearbox know is there any way to reduce the spring tension? Obviously the other option is a rearset that provide a more favourable leverage ratio (or switch to race shift pattern)

The spring tension works both ways, harder it is to push it up the ramp the more help it gives you coming down other side.

Make sure the levers are at bang on 90 degrees to each other on the linkage, this makes a big difference.
