On my '03 R6, sometimes when attempting to shift down it feels like there is no gear there, I press the shifter but it just moves freely and doesn't click into gear, it just stays in the gear it's in. I sometimes get the gear back if I let the clutch out and pull it back in, although I have on a couple of occasions been stuck in 3rd at the lights. I'm not sure where to start looking, any suggestions?

Excellent!

Just a query really, I'm not sure if this is normal or not. On the move, my coolant temperature sits between 70 and 80 (celsius). On colder days it can dip into the 60s. Stationary it will get up to just over 100 after a few minutes. I thought this was quite a swing, although it's my first bike so I don't know what's normal.... I'm just used to cars which sit bang on 90 all day long. So.. normal or not?

Never had to buy tyres before, got a good quote for Corsa 3s but it's for a 120/70 on the front, it's got a 120/60 at the moment. Does this cause any problems with insurance? I've definitely heard of people putting 70s on the front, is it a good idea for an '03 R6?
