Subject: [VFRlist] Popping out of gear....shifter part needed


My bike isnt shifting all the way into each gear with one click (it
takes an extra little bump), so after pulling the shifter mechanism
I narrowed it down to the part with the 3 gears on it that's welded
to the main shifter shaft. The bushing inside each of the 3 gears
seems to have worn which is allowing the shifter to hit the stop
before it moves the center gear enough to click fully into the next
gear. Usually it's ok as long as I shift solidly, but if I shift
fast and dont pop it all the way up it will pop back out of gear. So
now that I've explained what and why... I need to know where to buy
that part. Honda was nice enough to discontinue it. It's still
listed on some websites, but when I tried to order it they replied
to say it was discontinued. Does anyone have a source for older
honda parts or does anyone happen to have a good used one sitting
around? There would need to be almost zero play in the bushings
those little gears spin on, plus little to zero wear on the shaft
where the needle bearing on the cover rides. If anyone has any info
or anything it would be much appreciated. Also, does anyone know if
the 86-87 bikes can be converted to the 88-89 european VFR750
shifter mechanism? It looks like a conventional type instead of the
goofy planetary gear shifter the bike has now, plus honda still
sells it.
