Panigale v4: gear problem after dropping the bike

tiewkub · Aug 6, 2024

Hi, I happened to drop my bike when parking, everything seems fine except for the frame, wing, clutch lever, bar end, and gear lever that scratch. After that when I tried to ride it home I noticed that it wouldn't engage to 2nd gears but get to neutral instead even with clutch pull-in or with quick-shifter at 4000-6000 rpm usually I would be able to change gears with clutch pull-in at lower rpm (3000-4000) Does everybody know what cause this? And the gear lever doesn't seem to bend (or was it?).

It was cause by dropping it, and the lever looks to be bent.

Sorry English was my second language.

Update: I tried to ride it the next morning until now to identify the problem and here what’s I got. Now it can shift to 2nd gear. Dealership said it was normal. And when I shift with clutch or with quickshifter (4000-6000 rpm) sometimes it shift as smooth as butter but sometime stuck at neutral and make loud chuck noise when tried to change to 2nd ( 1st - n - 1st - n - chunk - 2nd) and other than that it was smooth. What do you guys think what the problem? Was it clutch fluid? (Still at max), internal? (Gear). What do you guy’s think?

Have you fixed the shift lever and rearset? Both look bent

Bent shift forks, maybe.

If it worked fine before you dropped and it doesn't afterwards, it is entirely safe to assume you've bent the DQS linkage, operating arm, shift lever or a combination of these three. I'd start with replacing the obvious items and see if that makes a difference. It is highly unlikely you will have damaged anything internally, if you dropped the bike whilst it was stationary and not running.
