| Yes unfortunatly you will have to pull the motor down to access the gearbox. You will find any or all of the problems Mastrtech noted and possibly more that cause gears to slip out of sync.

| If you're lucky, it's just bent forks; however, depending on how stupidly a previous owner drove it, you made need work on the actual gears. It's best to check around to see if anybody actually specializes in this kind of thing.
