Happened twice yesterday after a ride of about 80 miles. It was between the higher gears (can't remember which ones or way).
I had to change down both times (accompanied by terrible grinding of gears) as it wouldn't go up. I didn't touch the throttle (left it on tick-over)
Is this always the way and should I have rolled to a halt first?
Also why is this happening? Is the oil getting thin as the bike gets hot?
Is it damaging anything?
Thanks in advance for any help with this rather worrying matter.
