Hey Guys,
Guess this is my first post but loving my Berg!!! Riding in Colorado a few weeks ago and sounded like 1st gear was shearing. I immediately took it back to camp. I was having some clutch issues (not bled properly) and think that played a role. As clutch released and gear engaged, horrible grinding sound. I think its only in 1st. I did ride it afterwards and other gears seem to be ok. Wondering if anyone has experienced this or any similar? I have searched forums, etc. Is this something easy to dive into or should I take it to my mechanic? I have rebuilt many 2 strokes and have done moderate motorcycle repairs. I haven't gone into many 4 strokes besides checking valves. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Adam
p.s. Any other berg riders in western North Carolina?
