2006: “I was downshifting and heard a really load noise from the transmission. The noise is prevalent in 3 rd gear only when downshifting. It is worse as it can be heard when accelerating now. Only 3rd gear is effected. I cannot use 3rd gear at all at this time. The noise can be heard when riding the bike or standing near when driving by.”
