Keeps on poping out of 3rd gear under HARD throttle, does it sound like the selector fork is bent or could it be worse..
Is it an engine out job too.

Your avatar looks like she's popping out as well! Phew!

Sorry - don't know what happened there - mind wandered...

Souds like worn dogs to me. Engine out and new parts in box I'm afraid. (This is assuming you've checked the obvious things like the engine flexing in the chassis and loading up gearchange mechanism).

My old R1 engine started to do this in 2nd. I had the parts replaced. The dogs were very rounded and the selector fork was bent. The mechanic who repaired it said the bent fork was not pushing the gears together enough. this in time caused the dogs to round off.

*Tongue firmly in cheek*

Thats what you get for putting a bike engine in a half tonne car

*ducks*

Likely the selector fork is goosed. Dont wait until it falls out and knackers a rod like Denoe did

Going to take the engine out tomorrow, get a friend to sort it out whilst i look into turbo mods and the such like.. And think i will change to a cable gear change too.
thanks for the reply guys, suppose thats what this forums about. Ta....
