Just a guess basscaster but it may be idling too high rpm's to shift smoothly.


I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 50 years later. I get an allowance every month. I have PU truck and a bass boat, I am blessed.

Wonder if it is a linkage problem or does it have to go to dealer?

Easy to adjust the idling if that's the problem but if it's under warranty I would let them do it. Have to take the cowling off to get to the set screw to adjust the idling. Just make sure it has warmed properly, remember it's just like a car engine.
