44014,

Pulled this out of the Owners Document that Taffy put together:

Stuck in gear ...........Selector 'claw'; metal too soft ..........Remove Ã¢â‚¬ËœclawÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ plate, rub away edges and burrs. Ã¢â‚¬â„¢04 = hardened steel

Stuck in gear ............Clutch drum gets grooved badly ........... Replace after two seasons. With the above it's cured

This is found in the "Section-4......... Wear Items.....Amber-Warning"

Don't know why 3rd and 5th are the only gears affected but it may be because of there location on the shift drum, or maybe just worn. I have the same problem with finding gears on my bike from time to time also. Hope this helps,

Regards,
