Several of our GZ250 trainer bikes became difficult to shift. Neutral became harder to find and students missing shifts became more frequent. Clutch lever adjustment and freeplay on all GZ250 were verified to be correct.
We lubed the shaft that the shift lever rotates on, first with a penetrating oil and then with engine oil a week or so later. The shifting problems have lessened considerably.
If you are having problems shifting your GZ250, and you are using the clutch and shift lever correctly, you might try lubricating the shift lever shaft.
Can't hurt. Doesn't cost much. Might help.
