I had the silver one from 19- spring 25. 16,997 miles to 50,000. I'm very used to taking it easy on 2nd gear or skipping it altogether if I'm getting on it.
The silver one started skipping around 21k mi, I bought this blue one with 12,300 miles and it's starting that BS at about 17k. Was hoping I would get more time out of 2nd but I knew it was going to happen sometime.
As far as I know 2nd will just be weak but I'll be able to ride it forever, taking it easy on or skipping 2nd. Sucks though 2nd is such a nice gear for 35-50.
Miss that Silver bullet sometimes, lot of memories around it. We survived hitting two deer together!
