coming spring failliure?

[pille]

my bike has now 40000km, so I assumed that the spring problem would not happen. But today when I wanted to shift down it just got stuck. After trying a few times it just went fine. This happened two or three times today!

Is this an omen or just me not shifting correctly?

Does the spring failliure comes at once or does it start to fail this way?

Mine just happened all at once. You might just be getting the ever lovely mis-shift that seems to happen from time to time. I think their was a thread written on it somewhere.

If the spring breaks it will not shift at all and the shifting will not come back. Also, the spring is either broken or not, it is not a slow failure.

I would change the lubricant if you haven't recently. Metal paste that accumulates in the gear lube causes the shift pawl do drag and causes bad shift action. It is best to take the side cover off and clean out the gunk when changing fluid. Many here (including myself) have had excellent results with Redline Shockproof Heavy in the transmissions. Don't know if it is available to you there.
