I have been riding my raptor and in 5th gear i have noticed that it is skipping gear. It changes all gears perfect up and down. Its like at 85 kays in 5th gear that this seems to happen. All other gears are fine. Its like it changes down gear but i know it isnt cause it isnt reving. Its a jumping or skipping. I changed oil to a Maxima SynBlend 4 10w40w. It seems to have started after i did this. Gradually getting worse after 2 rides with new oil in it. Has anyone else had this problem with 5th gear in the raptors before. Raptor has done 900 kays according to dash. Any help would be much appreciated.

I think you will find you are hitting the rev limiter .....

I have just noticed after giving it another oil change that it says with filter that they tale 1.85 litres. After adding this much it is only just regestering on the dipstick. This could be the problem. Not enough oil.
