I had a few engines where it poped out of 1st under load , both 500's - I'd sort it whilst you are in there f possible - on mine it took a year of commuting to get to the point where it was a royal pain, then it started doing it in 2nd too and I pulled the engine as I'm on a bit of a steep hill and it was getting 'not funny' going up the hill slipping the clutch in 3rd or poping out of gear and reving it's nutts off in 2nd every day.
Bomber I have managed to source some new gear selectors for the 500K, the middle one is very difficult to source these days and I've managed to find a few, I also have a new left hand fork along with some really good second hand ones which TBH look as good as the new one.I have most of the gears NOS as well if it turns out you need to replace 1 or 2. Hope it's not one of the ones I'm missing as I spotted one on german E-Bay the other day and it was around £125 for just one gear.When you split it and can check if there's any damage and if any of those parts are useful left me know as I don't expect the middle selector fork to not sell for long.
