    5th gear gone?

    Went for a ride the other day. Bike was running great then 5th gear turned into neutral. ? Never acted up or missed a gear. pulled out the clutch everything looks good with the segment and linkage. pulled the oil pan and didn't find anything odd. No metal. WTF seems very strange to me.

    Lapeer Dragway opens April 5th

    I might try and head out. I am really anxious to see what this beast will do in stock form ( save for the exhaust ). I am hoping to see some 9's out of it. I will post up later this week if I will be out there or not. It might be too cold still track condition wise. Todd
