zx 14 stuck in 6th gear
this is what happen. I rolled out from the shop on Saturday for a good ride home. before i left the shop i turned onthe air shifter for a rocket ride out from the shop
i rolled inthe throttle then pinned it i felt the tire spin then catch so i hit the button 1 time then then i had to roll out that swhen i saw that the gear select said 6th gear?
so i tryed to down shift it would not. i stop then tried it still would not shift . i did get it to pulloff in 6th gear so i rode on home not good on the clutch but i made it home i turn the bike off and it shifted down from 6th no trouble. i set the bike up on a stand and started it ran it through the gears no trouble no noises. off the stand and out to the lake road for a hole shot and on the air shifter no trouble. but this does make me wonder what i may have bent. has this happened to anyone

Maybe just a linkage issue.

gotcha, LOL
It is getting harder to keep all the different bikes straight .
It could have been the air shifter binding.
