Re: gear problem?
Soo-- the bike will shift fine into 3rd as long as the revs are lower?
From experience, i always start with cheap solutions when it comes to tranny probs.
In all cases i completely grease the external linkage, then go from there.
However, if the problem only exists at hi RPM's , then the prob is most likely internal.

Re: gear problem?
While you're greasing lubing and adjusting the shift linkage, you might also take a moment to grease lube and adjust the clutch lever, cable, and actuator as well.
