Well gents, I have been having issues with the bike shifting...specifically from 2nd to 3rd. After doing as much tinkering as I could(keeping the chain tight and lubed, clean oil etc) and consulting with some of you I finally took my bike to the shop. It only has about 3000 miles but I need to get this taken care of. At first I thought it just might be me somehow but it happens way too often for that. I will be shifting from 2nd and after releasing the clutch and it will still be in 2nd. It usually happens when I have the rpm's up around 7k and above either torqueing it up or zipping through the gears. It never has any issues downshifting either. It is very frustrating. I have done a lot of research to see if this is a widespread issue or just a fluke. I really didn't find anyone with an 08-09's having similar issues but I read a lot of folks complaining about kawasaki's trannys and clutch set up being somewhat weak compared to other makes. Who know's? Either way anything less than 100% when I get it back is unacceptable. I have put too much time and money into it for anything less than perfect. Has anybody else had any similar issues with they're 10r (regardless of model) or heard of anything like this? I would appreciate any input you have. I will keep yall posted if anyone is interested. Thanks.
