Title: Anyone know much about DRZ250's having shifting problems?
Post by: makenzie71 on September 29, 2008, 03:52:54 PM
Customer is bringing in a DRZ250 and he claims it's hard to shift from second to third at higher RPM.  Anyone hear of such a critter?

Bent shift rod. Or the clutch needs adjusted. Or the clutch is worn beyond spec and not disengaging completely.

Would any of those really just effect one gear?
