took part in a trial yesterday and taking off in deep mud to get up a hill and the chain come off and got tangled between the flywheel and the frame, after this hapend i heard a clicking noise coming from it, we thought it was the chain rubbing on the tensioner but after more riding i found that it was only in 2nd gear that it made the clicking sound :s ..... worrying.

were not sure what it might be, have had thoughts that a tooth might be missing but not sure :/

Any body else had this before with either of the gears?

Thanks for any help

All I can say is that of last count, RYP on this side of the pond had never sold any gears, yet in a situation like this where things come to a screeching halt suddenly under load, it is certainly possible the cogs could suffer damage. All this presuming you have isolated the gear.

Even a tweak or bend in the gear could do it. This should be able to be confirmed by removal of the clutch basket and feeling the rotation if the input shaft vs the output shaft in that gear selected. Any binding or roughness should be evident, requireing teardown.

Hope that helps,

Okay thanks for teh help.. going to take her apart tomorow and see how much trouble im in
