Sometimes I have to release the clutch and re clutch to get gear to select what is the problem

Usually going from 4th to 5th or 5th to 6th the gear doesn't change up just stays in current gear, I have to release cluth and re clutch and then it changes up no problem what could be the cause of this would a tight chain be an issue?

SOURCE: While riding, the 4th and 5th gears do not engage

This behavior is the symptom that your clutch plates are getting worn out. Since power is transmitted from the cam shaft to the front sprocket (smaller dia) is better at lower gears but once the rpm increases the clutch plates do not catch up with the cams rotation, hence slipping at higher gears & in between 4th & 5th gears the pulling power of the engine seems to go to neutral before engaging again. Check your clutch plates as well as the sprocket-chain- rear sprocket for wearing out of the gear teeth & replace if required. You will get back full power & acceleration as when the bike was new.............sodeep

SOURCE: wont go into 1st or 2nd, but will shift up to 4th

Take it back to the shop/mate that rebuilt it and get them to fix it.Or if you did it make sure the shifter drum is in the correct position and the selector lever is functioning correctly.Failing that you'll have to go back inside and check correct installation of selector forks.Make sure the tranny is functioning correctly BEFORE you put the other half of the engine casing together by spinning the outputshaft and going through ALL the gears turning the drum. Hpoe it all works out good for ya ....

SOURCE: 2006 R6 Shifting Problem

Howdy: The 3rd and 4th gears are used the most, after awhile the dog and shifting forks get worn more. Try changing to Yamaha Lube simi-syn oil 10/40. Drain oil after warm up (get trans oil warm). The oil is in a silver 4gal containe at the Yamaha dealer. This oil has helped me.
Good luck - Doug

SOURCE: i get a disturbing noise

check chain tension and that the aft sprocket lines up directly with the front first, if its not that then take the front cover off the countershaft main gear drive and check for play maybe a bearing is worn out..

Problems selecting 1st gear peugeot 106 1.1 zest

If the clutch is a problem you will have difficulty selecting 1st only as the gears would be spinning from the engine revs.. I would say that the front input shaft (clutch shaft) bearing is failing allowing miss alignment of the synchros and not allowing proper engagement of the gears synchro rings. It means removal and repair to the gear box so the clutch can be inspected while the box is out.

Hi my rx8 is makin a grinding noise from the gearbox and the noise goes away wen foot is pressed on the clutch makes a noise wen drivin in 1st 2nd 3rd n 4th gear noise goes in 5th and the noise is there in...

What?! Really! The noise goes when the clutch pedal is depressed! So the noise goes when the release bearing (throw-out bearing) is engage? So how would that be a release bearing/clutch problem? If it didn't make a noise until the clutch pedal was depressed, it would be the release bearing! In other words its the input shaft bearing and/or counter shaft bearing in the gearbox. Stop giving people bad advice

Gets stuck between 4th and 5th

The shift rail fork ends are likely worn. There are fork contact/wear pads that ride in the gear shift sliding collars, and over time, or from low gearbox oil levels/insufficient lubrication, these pads wear, allowing "slop" and preventing the gears from engaging fully. I'd check the brngs, synchro rings and the dog clutch teeth, too. If you see metal/brass or aluminum shavings in the case drain plug, oil or on the bottom of the gearcase...that isn't a good sign. This sounds like a trans issue, not a clutch issue.

Transmission defects in downshift

With any manual transmission you shouldnt just go from 6th to 4th bc it is bad for the transmission, if i am in 5th gear and i want to go into 3rd i always go from 5th to 4th to 3rd as a preventative maintenance. If you have a defected transmission you should be able to get it warranted by the bmw dealership you bought if from though.
