It sounds like the syncro
. What else would pop it out like that?
Lemme go find bense or mistabone for ya
.
EDIT:
Unless you bent the 5th/R fork - did you have an "incident" with it recently?

Have you checked your fluid?
It could possibly be your synchros, but if you haven't changed the fluid since the swap, go ahead and change it.

synchros have nothing to do with the gear disengaging, only the gear engagement.</TD></TR></TABLE>
