Hello all
My 2001 748R gear lever was feeling funny. I was "sometimes" able to up and down shift fine but sometimes the gear lever didn't return to the original position. After reading the past posts, I suspected the shift fork return spring.

So I opened the left side engine cover. And guess what I found. The nut holding the eccentric bolt was sitting on the case...The springs are fine.
I took out the wheel and shift arm. Then used thread lock to tighten the nut to the right position.

Good day View attachment DSC_0067_1540347272503.JPG

Good work. I bet it felt good to see the issue upon inspection and for the problem to be simple.
