not as of yet... this week our shop got flooded with customer bikes so i have been busting *** to get though them so i can get mine back up on the lift to work on it... i know it may sound dumb... but i am going to swap to ATF in the primary again, get the synthetic out... let it sit for a day and see what happens... i seem to be finding in my research that the 3rd gear issue is also related to a slipping clutch... so who knows i may get lucky re adjusting my clutch and swapping fluids

Good luck, keep us posted. Did you already have the false-neutral recall done?

I would suspect shift cam, dogs, or possibly bent shift fork.
