Hi people. This is my first post after lurking here for years and checking out whats been going on. My question is does anyone have a problem with norge 1200/ 07 gear lever not wanting to move,generally in third to fourth or to second. The clutch does disengage when levering but the pedal just takes ten men and a bullock cart to move. Sometimes.
Also. what is the reason not to use additives in gear oils on late models.?
Cheers from Aus
 
Guz5,

clean out you shift mechanisms from the lever, through the footrest hanger onto the top of the gearbox. Dirt and other unwelcome crud gets thrown in there from the rear wheel (the same crud that gets on the rear shock). This usually causes the problem - at least it's a starting point...

Where about are you?
 
Hi Guz5,
I recently had the same problem. It happened over three days. My gear leaver got stiffer and stiffer until I could not move it at all. I had it towed to the dealer. He flushed the clutch system out and got rid of a lot of dirty fluid and it took care of the problem right away.No problems since. :woohoo:
