G2 comes out of gear

Mac B. · 03-10-2009, 06:13 PM

My G2 comes out of gear and goes right back in sometimes. What can I do to fix this? Do you adjust the cables behind the shifter and if so how much?

Thanks Mac

Have someone work the shifter and watch the lever on the rear end. Make sure the lever is traveling all the way each direction. If not, adjust.

Ron....you always have sound advise for members questions. There are "special" cable lubers, sometimes that helps. The 2 cables work "push/pull" one bad cable and it will not go into gear all the time. You can try "tightening" the adjustments (for better "throw"). Is the f/r lever really had to move? Sometimes you should just replace "both" cables. Let us know what happens....could help the next person. Good luck Dave

Thanks for the replies. I thought I could adjust the cables, just wanted to here it from you guys. I already have adjusted some and it is better so I may move just a little more. Where do you get a cable luber and the new cables?

Thanks Mac

I've used them before, I like to just softly hold the cable in a vice or upright and spray it every time I walk by. Let it soak to the other end, work the cable up and down each time and don't be in a hurry will get the best results.
Make sure you use a penetrating oil, WD-40 is not.

Flintrock I went and bought the cable luber this morning and will try it out. It was $9.95 at my local motorcycle shop.

Thanks Mac
