Default Bravo 1 Gear Slipping

Hello!

i have an issue with getting my gear in forward/reverse with my bravo 1's.

The problem seems to only happen when first putting into gear, which requires a little rev in order for the gear to fall into place. no problem after that once runing.

Any suggestions on why this is happening? And how i could resolve it? Thanks!

Did you just change the drive oil over to synthetic?

I would take shifter cable of drive side off the bracket and move it by hand(while running).if it moves hard,cable may be bad.then I'd take it apart,either cone clutch is worn or the upper gears aren't lined up right.

More than likely ( hopefully ) just a cable adjustment,,,,,, DO NOT REV TO GET IT TO ENGAGE !!!! Bad things will happen
