January 7, 200818 yr Hi , I have a 02 250 and recently developed a problem changing down, either hot or cold, id be moving from one section to another say in 4th or 5th and it would stubornly refuse to drop down for usualy a few minutes,i changed the atf with no improvment , is it very important to use a specific brand of atf. is there any checks i can do .... remove clutch cover etc etc??? any advice would be appreciated.
January 7, 200818 yr Hi there, i'm not sure if the 02 is the same as my 05 but i had a very similar prob and all i had to do was adjust an eccentric bolt behind the clutch. You will have to remove the clutch assembly and undeneath is a bolt that positions a return spring for the gear lever. for adjusting - if you cant change up - turn the bolt clockwise, if you cant down shift turn it counter clockwise (only a small amount at a time though!). Hope this helps and good luck
January 21, 200818 yr Author Replaeced the atf with 5w 30 fully sin, never had such a good gear change.can now find neutral aswell...
January 21, 200818 yr Author ye they recommend atf but, i was advice by an experienced gasgaser to try this oil if experiencing change up or down problems, and unlike anything else ive tried, this has solved my problem.happy days.
January 22, 200818 yr I am the victim of the link to the 05 Raga. Did you find the change was stiff or sticky feeling? I have now taken my motor out for stripping so am hoping it will all be ok and I just need to change to a different oil. After years of enduros it was a shock as to how complicated and compact the Raga is to take apart..... are all trials bikes such a pig to do engine work? Trial by name trial by nature........love it to bits though! ha ha
