    Bear in mind, whilst it is a Hysong, underneath it's an SV650, so whilst there isn't much info around, the SV650 info is still applicable.

    If it's jumping out of gear it'll be one of two things, either:
    1. Gear selector fork(s) are damaged and not engaging properly, or
    2. You're not engaging the gear fully - does your gear pedal need lowering slightly so that you actually move it further with your toe? If it's jumping out of more than a single gear it's unlikely to be the selector, unless you've been really brutal with it. Try adjusting the pedal position downwards and see how you get on.

    What are you trying to adjust with the clutch? That'll have no effect on gear selection, just ensure that the correct amount of free play remains in the cable, and the pushrod mechanism (if it uses one).
    Racing is life, anything before or after is just waiting.

    Ok, cheers i'll try lowering it, only adjusted it at the lever as the biting point was getting closer to the bar. So if more than one gear hou don't think its the foot selector?

    You mean fork selector. Lol. Yes unless you make a habit of crunching your gears across the range your selector should be ok. So as everyone else is saying drop you gear shifter a little to see if it is just a case of you not engaging gears fully.

    Always worth keeping that lubed and adjusted correctly, make sure the ball joint doesn't have excessive free play etc Has been know to be an issue on certain models of bikes, the dogs can wear if you don't kick it in properly.
