Title: 2nd gear
Post by: jenray2 on February 23, 2013, 01:02:36 PM
Hi, Everyone,

I own an FJ1100, 1984.  Second gear is gone and is in the process of being torn apart.  I have searched high and low for a new second gear.  I have found the shift forks and pinions, but not second gear.  Does anyone out there know of either a reputable place to purchase a new second gear, or have a used transmission that has a working second gear in it for sale.  Thanks for any help.

Ray

I should have something. Where are you based?

You should fix more than 2nd gear now that you have it cracked open. Check out Randy at www.rpmracingca.com (http://www.rpmracingca.com), he can provide the under cut dogs so they don't jump out under load. Stronger shift forks are good, add under cut dogs and you have a proper fix.

Randy's the man for this stuff. I have 2nd gear problems too, just as soon as I can afford it I'll be buying all the parts to fix it up from him. Good prices and even better customer service ;)
