hi all im having problems on my 00 model dt125r i can go up the gears no probs ut its hard to go back down them i need to keep tapping at the lever... can anyone help as to wot would be wrong with it?? the clutch it working fine with no probs..

Could be a bent selector fork in the gearbox

I had a similiar problem recently and took it to the dealers to be looked at seems it still under warrenty.

Apperently all it needed was the selector pivot cover taking off and a damn good cleaning behind there, and that was on an 04 bike.

I'm not saying this will be the problem but it's worth a look at.

ok so looks like a strip down is in order for further invesigation.. cheers for the replys
