When I raced one, it would come out of gear and go into neutral. It did it when I was in 3rd and 4th gear.

JH Racing was having some problems with his tranny's. He had a machinist fix them for him. I am told is a cheap and easy fix. I am taking him my motor to do the fix for me while my bike is apart.

my brother did some stuff to it but i don't know what exactly. he's the mech. i'll keep you posted and report on how well it work out.

Ok sack I will ask him tomorrow if I can remember when I am there. I know both of his bikes his practice and his race bike had the same problem.
