droping clutch at about 10,000rpm in 1st just crawling makes it lift about 30 cms..... it was an accident

**jeremysprite** · 18th April 2007, 20:18

I second that. 839k's and it slips outta 5th??? Lol it's your bike, if you've got the $$$ then thrash it!

the guy in the shop said the gears wernt set right or something like that. it doesent just slip out it does it when i change from 5 to 6 maby im just not clickin it up enough and its only done it twice.

Could be the chain tension. If chain tension is too tight or too loose (quite possible when the bike is new, I would think), the gears can sometimes be a little stiff. I know when my chain gets loose, or I tighten it too much (the Haynes manual says to tighten it too tight, I think), I have problems between first and second, and I get neutral if I don't really bang it through.

False neutrals between 5 and 6, or 4 and 5 on a 5-speed box seems to be quite common on older bikes. Some guy told me that Suzuki gearboxes in particular are famous for having false neutrals all through the box, although I don't know how true that is.

Use the clutch.

Kawasaki claim 37hp at the rear wheel don't they.
That seems a little at odds with the dyno chart on the two bros exhaust

Or is it a different kind of hp they're talking about?

**2strokegirl** · 28th April 2007, 16:44

it could posibly be. im just thinking if its a exaust made to up the proformance of the gpx then wont it do that?? in the manual thingy it says theres like 3 different models so maby the hp is different with the different models?

baffels are being taken out now. iv done 1400 kms.

**jeremysprite** · 3rd May 2007, 14:11

is your suspension quite soft, even though its a new bike? I find it SO annoying when you're trying to corner hard.

**fjones** · 5th May 2007, 20:00

its a little soft for me....

**2strokegirl** · 7th May 2007, 19:04

mine seems to like wobble round the corners when you get low.

the shop wont do the baffels now they reckon they dont wanna do it cos it might stuff up the performance levels etc etc. sooo anoying!! felt like saying well wheres the hacksaw il do it myself.

haha,

you would think if you wanted to do something to your bike it would be a non issue. Especially seeing as you can't claim performance under warranty.
