[QUOTE="HotRodZilla, post: 902165, member: 13519"] Ok...So lemme ask this, cuz my '07 is doing something similar. During riding, especially if I'm really getting into the revs, the bike 'clunks' into 4th gear. A few times, I have missed the shift completely. It feels like it snaps into gear and is very noticible when it happens. BUT it only does it between 3rd and 4th. It does not do it all the time. I've asked my dealer to check it twice and they can't find it. Say it feels normal. 60-70% of the time, it is normal. Smooth. A fluid flush with SpeedBleeders and new fluid seemed to help reduce the frequency and severity, but it still happens and seems like its getting worse again. I cleaned my shifter a while back, and I'll try again, but this is definitely not an exterior problem. Im wondering if I shouldn't do a clutch soak and try the air bubble removal thing and another flush. Any ideas? Why only 4th gear?? [/QUOTE]
