Internal problems...noises?? If it is, I'd be takin' it right back to the people that did the work. If it's not right it could be dangerous ridin' it till' it's fixed right.

Re:hello from South Carolina 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
bike would only go into nuetral & 2nd gear.I found the problem.the lever was out of grease & nearly ceased up.I removed the shifter from the assembly,sanded the shifter shaft smooth to remove any scarring that may have ocurred.greased the assembly, put the shaft back in.now it shifts smooth as a baby's butt.one would think the dealership would have checked that before releasing to customer.

You will quickly learn that the bike is great, but some of the dealers need some serious tweakin' The guys on this site are great and since I see you already figured out the problem on your own , your well on your way to being a full fledged Roadie shadetree mechanic. Welcome aboard!
