Finnrider made me suspicous with his situation
Thanks again!
No, it isn't normal for the bike to suddenly lose power in any gear, at any time. However, you were revving the engine very high if you were riding at 38 mph in second gear. 8O I'm pretty sure your were "over the red line" at those rpms. :roll:
