well to cut a long story short my tenere is in the sick bay, ICU in fact

a month or so ago i was in the south of france doing a week of fairly rough offroading, towards the end the week the gear selector would just jam up neither going up or down the box, fiddle the pedal a bit and it would come fine. so i thought the selector has had a bit of a tweak on a rock etc.

anyhow it got me home fine and back to the usual commute. sarah and i went for a spin today, thankfully we didn't get too far. a crunching grinding noise started on a up change from a junction and loss of drive. ho hum,

on getting it home[trailor] and pulling the clutch basket i have found a part of a broken gear in at the selector drum/ mech [looks broke a while] so after dinner i need to pull and strip the 33,000 mile motor

more fun to follow
