[QUOTE="skiri251, post: 184238, member: 511"] OK. This is the stuff which puts the forum into full swing. :hihihi: As many of you know, I am a proud owner of 1967 Bridgestone Mark II RS (2 stroke 200cc twin). I racked up around 700 miles since the complete rebuild. The last one being a spirited circuit run @ Willow Springs. I managed to mis-shift (accidentally shifted down due to the reverse pattern from regular motorcycles), lock up the rear tire and crash. That by itself was relatively harmless. Very few scratches + bent shift pedal. Two weekends ago, I went to the usual nearby twisty. Then it started happening. In the first gear, it feels like drive chain is skipping sprocket teeth. Sudden loss of acceleration with horrible noise. I really thought it could be worn sprockets so I put new front sprocket but it still happens. I guess I have to split the crank case again but am afraid the cause will be not that self-evident. It appears to occur only under power. I put it on the main stand and let the rear tire spin in the air but no skipping. Never happened in other gears so far. I posted this on Bridgestone forum but so far no replies. So yet again I need great collective knowledge of this forum. What should I look for when I open up the tranny? BTW, here's the latest trim.
