Gearbox Failure: Tenere died... Possible clutch or even gearbox
So today my tenere has died on me in spectacular way...
During some moderate fast offroading, on acceleration through some bumps she has made a noise and lock the rear wheel, like chain come off.... naturally i have pull the clutch and stop, then i was trying to find neutral, at this point when i press on the lever bike has made awful grinding noise and then become quiet and revved up... so i stop the engine, and checked the chain... all good.
Try to start the bike, and despite neutral light on she was on gear (?!!) also clutch seems to not work... I have try to down shift to 1st gear and start the engine, just to get out off the green lane to main road... starts and start going slowly on 1st gear........ after about 5 meters loud bang and bike stall... since then starter wouldn't even spin the crankshaft - its like hitting something with loud metallic noise.
I think something is really messed up :-(
There is no neutral, to push the bike you need to pull the clutch.
What you think guys??? - gearbox or something with piston?
