[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 1396833, member: 615"] Put the bike up on the centerstand. Kneel down to the floor on the left side of the bike and rotate/jog the rear wheel with your right hand. Ignore the clutch. It's not needed for this experiment. Using your left hand actuate the shift lever as you rotate/jog the rear wheel. Does the lever spring back smoothly to its center position after you execute all the up and down shifts? If it does spring back nicely your problem is likely somewhere else. [/QUOTE]
