On the way home from Eureka Springs yesterday, we were almost to Hot Springs when I found that I could no longer downshift from 5th to 4th. The synchronizer just wouldn't work. I don't think I was being too rough on it on the down shifts, don't remember grinding the gears, etc.
In order to get it into 4th, I have to put it into 3rd (without releasing the clutch), then slip it into 4th. Going to flush the tranny and refill, but I have a feeling that I'll be yanking it when it gets too cool to ride, or if it gets worse. I've tried double clutching and even reving the engine to get it to slip in, but no joy.
All of the other gears seem to be fine.
Looks like I'll be investing in an engine hoist for my shop.
