    Tranny got stuck in 6th gear on my way to work last friday, after being in the shop for a week I found out that the fork broke fell down and get caught in the 6th gear and broke a tooth off the gear.
    Total cost is going to be about 1400.00 to repair. 750.00 labor ,the rest parts-including a new clutch. I already had Coupes old clutch but decided if I was spending so much to get it fixed that it was better to buy a new one.Also already had the URD upgraded TOB to install.

    Well it seems that most of my noise is coming from the URD throwout bearing I got from gadget.
