[QUOTE="ShinyPartsUp, post: 173674, member: 2341"] I've had the same problem with this bike. The technique Rad wrote of helps, but not always. Blipping at slower speeds helps too. Question: Why just second gear? I was always taught to disengage the clutch before shifting. This has worked on every other bike I've owned, and every other gear on the FJR. So why do I have a clunk/grinding intermittently (less as it has broken in) on this bike and only second gear? Why not every time? Enquiring simple mind wants to know.....The dealer just said Yamaha's do it a lot........ :dntknw: [/QUOTE]
