starting from first gear, when i accelerate hard n try to shift into 2nd gear (after 8k rpms) the bike shifts into neutral. i have to shift again and it'll go into gear. this happens about 40% of the time. maybe its cause i'm not shift with my foot hard enough. this is my first bike. what do u guys think?

How log have you heen riding? If not long just give it time to get the feel of the bike

 

Also try shifting without the clutch. I know on my bike that if I shift without the clutch, it won't go into neutral. Even if I try.

 

Try shifting harder with your foot and if that doesn't feel like it should be right bring it to your dealer.

 

i know some of the r6's had a similar problem. one guy had to completely forego 2nd and go straight to 3rd.

 

try shifting it up harder. Also, what bike do you have? Like Eglovr said, 99-01..or was it up to 2002, the r6s had bad trannies.

 

its a 98' F3. i've been riding for 2weeks now. i guess cause i'm a nub at it. i'll try to shift it hard. thanks for the input guys.

it was up to 02, my 02 with 4k was starting to give me some trouble. maybe this f3 is having tranny problems?
