Hello all,
I am currently looking at an 86r that doord521 has for sale. The shifter has an issue, he says it sticks in the up and down position. It has no "spring" to it so to speak. He has informed me that the bike shifts through all gears fine, just has the lazy shifter on it.
Could this just be the return spring? If so, is that an easy case of pop off the case and replace sort of thing? I will buy a manual for this job, just wondered if anyone could tell me how much trouble I have ahead of me (how difficult of job am I looking at?)
Any response is greatly appreciated.
Eric
Also, if I purchase this bike I will need an entire headlight. Anyone out there got one?
