[QUOTE="DonRed7, post: 223634, member: 4252"] One thing that i noticed on my 175 km old 07' last nite that really did not impress me was the amount of lever travel between 1st and 2nd when she's just sitting(not running),...the lever will move down/up like 1"+,.... just seems like way too much before either engagement. My reason for getting down and checking(other than looking over every Sq inch of the bike) is that the shifting is NOT what i'd hoped for. To qualify myself i come from a 600R(not R6) which has a tranny that does not tolerate inattentive shifting but worked as well when she was traded 4 mths ago as when i picked her up in April of 03'. I'm not into the preload the shifter program but will be toeing up the slack for my next few rides to see how its goes. -WHEN it stops snowing :angry: -Don [/QUOTE]
