    a guy got stranded 2 days ago

    and i pulled him with my bike.

    it was a small 125 cc bike and i didnt pull him long,

    the thing is i tied it to my lower left shock mount

    and later realized thats where the tranyy is

    do u think there could be a problem with that?

    later i realized i shouldve tied on the right!!

    Not your tranny, but your differential. That's a pretty sturdy place - I'm guessing you'd break the rope before you damage that. I supose you MIGHT bend the shock mount post if you really worked at it, but I doubt you placed enough force on it to hurt anything.

    If a gear jumped, be careful because it is likely that it will get worse over time. Try to take it easy shifting into that gear and you may have to go easy on the throttle.
