turbo911 - 30/10/11 at 05:10 PM

hi any one shed any light on this problem i experienced today, the car a zx10 based locost engine from a 2007 bike, i drove the car yesterday for about 5 miles and all fine loaded it on the trailer left it in 1st gear strapped it up drove 200 miles today for a track day and when i arrived the straps had worn loose so i think the car may have been rocking a bit, no problem but on the sighting laps i could only engage 1st gear when trying to select 2nd it felt like it was getting blocked so day over before even begun any ideas ????

I would suspect linkages fouling on something before going inside the engine, although not running its designed to take forces both ways like this.
