I have a 1980 LTD1000. The problem im having is that when I shift it into second and beging to wind it out it will cut in and out. It acts like your pulling the clutch in and out while revving it up in second. It only does it in second gear. Sometimes it wont do it at all. It doesnt fall out of gear though. Is this shift forks or possibly clutch plates????
Thanks

If not already done, would perform clutch pushrod adjustment.
Good Luck!
