Kev,

Yer scaring me man! I was thinking the same thing as I was riding to the
WNYR.....how I haven't had any trouble with the return spring either...even
after all the talk on the list.

I guess I should prepare myself.......it will happen! I'm starting to sound
like this guy I met at the rally....a self proclaimed "moto hypocondriac"
:-)

By the way...any way to prevent/prolong the inevitable? I'm pretty easy with
the shifting.

Good luck with the fix.....Ian

p.s. my generator is about to break too :-)

 ALLRIGHT! That's it!, See, I knew I shouldn't of read those threads
about the shift retutrn spring. Put the wammy on me. I was thinking to
myself how I havn't had any problems with that thing.Bah! Shifted fine
for years, rode around after work, rush hour. I got home and as I left
to leave again, BAM That little bubble of bad bike luck landed right on
the back of my trans. Darn.
Well, I have been riding the piss out of the thing, trying to work out
any bugs in her.
