dm1 Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 Morning All, I have a 2018 ONE 250 which I've owned from new. For as long as I can remember it will not shift into 2nd gear when cold. It will half select the gear and 'grind' lightly. After running in 1st for a few minutes to warm up, it shifts ok. No issues engaging any of the other gears once warm. I've tried a few different oils, with no improvement. I change the oil frequently and nothing of concern on the plug magnet. With the engine off and cold, it will not shift into 1st or 2nd, with or without the clutch. Any suggestions? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks To shift gears with bike motor off and cold, rock the bike forward and back while you hold a steady force on the shifter. The status of the clutch is not relevant when shifting gears cold or hot, but the transmission needs to be unloaded to change gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonboy883 Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) Have you tried ATF? Edited June 9, 2020 by jonboy883 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dm1 Posted June 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2020 I used ATF when I first got the bike. I'll try ATF again on next oil change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted June 10, 2020 Report Share Posted June 10, 2020 There was a bulletin out about shifting on the one. You should ask your dealer. In `18 the Raga changed shift linkage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
