CB500/550 / gear box issues ??
« on: February 25, 2016, 09:53:50 AM »
Here,s something for you .
CB500 in racing kit. 3 rd gear occasionally seems to slip ( guaranteed its not the clutch as it would be more prevalent in other gears also )  ??
I have been told the gear itself is the issue and needs replacing but I need more convincing than that.

Only happens in 3rd. No issues with the balance of gears... quite odd , never experienced this type of thing before

very concerning when getting on the gas early in the corners. Feels like it jumps out then back in , sort off ....

any one have any ideas or experience with this issue ?

G,day folks . new to the site here but been on the US site for a bit of time.

Ex pat pom , moved to Oz when I was a nipper.... approx. 45 years ago. Used to live in Essex way back when ???

Got into historic racing a number of years back and started off with the Yamaha Rd LC 250 ( *81 model ) but got the urge for more races in another period so got my hands on the cb500/4.

was in race trim when I purchased it but as always ,  looking for more power.

Looking forward to picking your brains for ideas and / or experiences on the 500. and hopefully finding some performance parts on the way. ( let me know what you've got ? )

cheers
