Hi ya
I`ve got a 1989 kawasaki kr1 that is very stiff changing from 1st to 2nd gear, needs a good boot! Rest of gears select fine. Bike has been in storage for quite a long time but gearbox oil etc has been changed.
I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to let m eknow if they know what the problem might be, someone mentioned selector fork??
Thanks
Paul

Could be a bent selector fork. The gearboxes are easy to remove and strip. The problem is that the forks are listed as NLA from Kwak.
