I've had the same problem only I couldn't get past 3rd or 4th. It turned
out to be the pins in the shift drum like Don says. I was able to
replace the ones that fell out and I was good to go. According to John
Gainey at PCW, Yamaha beefed it up in '96 & up. I have one in my
Tourmaster but I can't see the difference.
