The first time I put the bike into 1st gear when it is cold, it goes in very hard with a loud knock. The switch over between 1st and second is also very loud and stiff. I have to push the gear through neutral to prevent it from sticking in neutral. It then goes into second with a loud knock. The rest of the gears though, are smooth. Any one with similar problems or ideas?
