I have a 1990 GSX. I'm confused about the whole shimming/fork vs syncros thing.
My 1st gear grinds while rolling almost all the time, unless I go super super slow. At a complete stop it is fine. 2nd grinds below 4k rpm. I have a little bit of play from shifter bushings I presume.
At first it, 1st gear would grind no matter if I was stopped. I adjusted the clutch pedal near the gas pedal, and it helped but it's basically all the way adjusted out already.
My question is, what do you think this closely resembles? Syncros? Fork needs shimming? Replacement of pedal assembly? If it's the pedal assembly, can I use a 2g? Some say the 1990s have issues with being different than the 1gbs and up. Trying not to break the bank here or else I would start replacing everything.
I'm from central California if anyone knows of a good DSM gear head nearby. Thank you
