[QUOTE="cadman, post: 433437, member: 5633"] My '05 FJR clunks into 1st gear, just as my '80 XS1100 does...It is normal for the FJR. I don't notice any unusual tranny noises at all. Most times, when shifting into first gear from neutral, I blip the throttle, engage/release the clutch lever, reengage the clutch and shift into first. Still clunks but seems softer than not doing the above. What was the idle set at? I run the idle on mine at at about 1050rpm. anything higher than 1100rpm may cause the tranny to clunk and jump as you described. cadman [/QUOTE]
