Hi!
I think I have a problem with my new Raptor 700.
I bought a new Yfm700r 2007 in a Yamaha official dealer.
When I shift from first to reverse it goes like this;
1. Pull the clutch lever in,
2. Shift the transmission into first gear.
3. Turn to the right the reverse **** "Rev"
4. Shift (you feel the shift pedal apparently shift)
5. Let the clutch out
The reverse light goes on and I?m in first, or I listening the gearbox ?rrrrrrrr? and then I must try two or three times to get the moto into reverse gear. This happens about 90% the time I make a first to reverse gear shift. These are the only gears affected.
My dealer said ?these problem is normal in Yamaha gearbox in 20% the time, but in mine case this happens 90% the time.
Please help me.
Thank you

Try this, works for me.

1. Pull the clutch lever in,
2. Shift the transmission into NEUTRAL
3. Release clutch lever.
4. Pull clutch lever in.
5. Turn to the right the reverse **** "Rev"
6. Shift down as if you wanted 1st gear.
7. Let the clutch out
