Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Last week as i was riding my motorcycle, i noticed that in second gear the engine speed momentarily raced as if i had ridden through a puddle. (the road was dry) since then, there have been several times where i am accelerating in second gear and the engine speed momentarily jumps as if the tire is slipping. however, the road is dry and my chain is tight so it is most definitely the transmission that is slipping. last night as i was again accelerating in second gear, the motorcycle began to jerk so badly that i nearly wrecked it. the transmission skipped so violently in second gear (maybe about ten times within a second or so) that the front tire was actually coming off of the ground when the transmission did catch. i quickly parked the motorcycle so i would not wreck it. notice that it has only happened in second gear.. so far. *ak
