I have a 1993 kawasaki ZX-11, vin [xxx], with a 6 speed transmission and 27,824 miles on bike. I have a problem with 2ND gear, especially at slower speed and under acceleration. I can be going anywhere from 15 to 45 mph and when I accelerate the bike sputters and kicks. I had it to a dealer and they changed the sprockets and chains thinking that was the problem, but it did not fix it. It IS dangerous when exiting a turn since you never know if the gear will catch. I've had a few instances when it finally catches it almost took me off the road. This IS also a problem when trying to get on the gas to get away from a car, the bike can pop out of gear or the gear could skip, allowing you to be injured or killed. I also will not take a passenger now since they could be tossed off when the gear slips. I have read of other zx-11's having this problem in the past, but I've only had this bike for about 2 years and it's gotten progressively worse. *nm updated 07/18/012 *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(B)(6)
