Default How is your second gear?

I spent about an hour reading about Yamaha second gear problem which begun around 75 and they still have the same problem. How long do they need to fix it? 100 years? Never heard about Harley second gear problem. I'll stick with Harleys.

An hour? I think about ten minutes would've been enough.

IF you were tall enough to reach the controls, dig your $$ out. Actually, I think you had to be 14. Least ways in SoDak.

TV really hasn't come that far, has it. STILL fake chit.
