$1,000 to fix. Not going to have that kind of money for awhile, because im trying to save for a car. The $1,000 is mostly labor,plus new shift fork,dogs,etc. Thats why I want to gear it and do everything in third.

Re: -1 +5 R6

I am running -1 +5 on a 96 ZX6R. Second gear comes up SWEET No clutch, no problem. I can ride standups all damn day @ the balance point!!!!!!

1st gear comes up like a whip - hard to control and keep it steady. Only shitty thing is, bye bye top speed. I kick out in 6th at like 200 km/h

If you keep riding it, most likely the rest of the tranny will go. See if one of the mechanics you know @ the local shop will do it as a home job. I paid a dude $400 labour (canadian dollars!) to re-build my ENTIRE tranny. Parts were about $90/gear. I replaced 1st,2nd,3rd & 5th and all the forks too.
