It's my fault. I was on the track and shifting down from fourth to what I thought was third and hit first instead. Now it won't "click" into first and jumps out with grinding. It goes into first but won't stay. All other gears shift fine. Speedometer stopped working about the same time. Not sure if that is related or not. Checked front and rear shift rod bushings and the cup, and they are all Ok. Tried re-adjusting the shifter, but problem remains. Could I have bent the 1st/Reverse shift fork, or moved it on its rod? Reverse works normally, clutch is adjusted properly, and clutch tube is secure. Ideas anyone?
