About this service
Gear selection problems can come from the clutch, the linkage or inside the gearbox. We work outward-in — checking the simple causes first — so you are not paying for an internal repair that was never needed.
Benefits
- Cleaner, more predictable shifts
- Simple causes ruled out before major work
- Fewer missed gears and false neutrals

The things riders ask us most often about this service.
