incorrect hivemind.

1st and 2nd usually have large "gaps" between gears so you'll generally have to rev it up more compared from going 4th to 3rd. However if your revs aren't quite what the revs are in gear, then you might want to look at changing transmission fluid and hoping that was the issue. Is it "winter" where you are? I find manual vehicles are finicky to drive in the cold until they're upto temp.


whats the torque spec on that rear wheel bolt/stud doohickey? that looks like a 36mm+ and the handle on that wrench is SHORT AS FUCK.

yes, it's cold. it's probably do for a fluid change too.

it's torqued to about 100 lb/ft and I was attempting to use the OEM toolkit to remove it. it didn't work.

100ft/lbs is fairly low spec for an axle nut, but I recall on my XR200 the rear spec was mid 70's so that's in the right area.

For vehicles, my rear axle nut spec is 188ft/lbs +/- like 10 or something.
