    Rear brake wear

    There is a lot of free play in my rear brake pedal. I think it is being caused by the hole in the frame where the bolt goes through having worn so much that it has become too big for the bolt Is there a way of fixing this Cheers

    shifting problem

    Your shift return spring may have got broken or dislodged. Take off clutch and right hand side casing and have a look, fairly straight process which can be done with the engine in the bike
