open bonnet, find gear cables under airbox/battery. get someone to fiddle with gear stick as you grease the sliding cables. I used silicon grease. nobody fiddled with my stick I had to do it myself |

under the gaitor there are clear plastic tubes as 'bushes' on a spring type arrangement, these get worn away and frayed. they should be replaced.

Gave every moving part under the gaitor another good greasing yesterday and bingo.
