[QUOTE="wmadoty, post: 1444261, member: 27157"] I broke the 1st 2nd shift fork in my old XS-11. One of the symptoms long before the fork broke was a difficult 2 - 1 down shift. It also popped out of 2nd gear into a false neutral, and it would pop in and out of 2nd under hard acceleration. I rode it for years just skipping 2nd gear entirely. I did eventually have to split the cases and replace the offending fork, along with $1,000.00 of other hard parts. I hope you are not having this experience. I loved that bike and would buy another in a second. [/QUOTE]
