Our Blaster lost 6th gear!! I can't figure out why, I thought the clutch might be adjusted improperly, which it still may be, but every other gear works fine. My bro was riding in the woods, mainly 1-3 gears, then when he went down the road, 6th wouldn't work. I took it for a ride, and when you shirt into 6th, the motor just revs freely with no load on it, has this happened to anyone, what should I check, please help!!

I'm wondering, why would the teeth wear off of 6th gear, it is the least used gear?? The blaster is an 88, we just got it, I don't know its full history, but it was prob. riden hard as it is old, but wouldn't a lower gear wear before 6th, the least used one?? please help, what else could it be, could it be the clutch??
