I WAS RIDING THRU A TURN ON MY 2019 HONDA CB300R AND WHEN I STARTED TO ACCELERATE OUT OF IT IN 2ND GEAR IT POPPED OUT OF SECOND AND DOWN INTO NEUTRAL CAUSING ME TO LOSE TRACTION AND FALL ONTO MY LEFT SIDE. LUCKILY I WALKED AWAY WITH ONLY SOME ROAD RASH. I HAD THE RECALL DONE, BUT SOMETHING IS STILL OFF IN THE TRANSMISSION. A FEW DAYS PRIOR THIS HAD HAPPENED TO ME BUT I WAS RIDING STRAIGHT AND I WAS ABLE TO GET THE MOTORCYCLE BACK INTO THE CORRECT GEAR AFTER IT DOWNSHIFTED ON ITS OWN. LAST NIGHT HOWEVER IT HAPPENED IN A TURN, SUPER SCARY NOT SAFE.
