| 2000 yamaha r6 2nd gear failure. central nj. switching to second gear not smooth and comes out of second gear. transmission not working correctly. i am a safety instructor and know how to ride. this is a mechanical and engineering issue. please advise as to the status of the investigation. this is a safety concern. the motorcycle slipping out of gear will act like a brake and could cause the bike to abruptly slow down and could cause a crash. thank you, anthony. *nm | |||
