Have about 300 miles on the bike. Occasionally, when I shift 4-5, the lever will go full travel, but the bike doesn't actually change gear. When I release the clutch I'm still in 4th. If i try a few more times it'll go, and the problem will seem to go away. Doesn't always come back. I though maybe it just needed to be worked out a bit, but today, it started to happen 3-4 as well. It seems to be somewhat random. I have varied rpm and load, and can't regularly reproduce the problem. Has anyone else experienced something similar? I am going to change the oil tomorrow and give the dealer a call to see what they want me to do.
I do clutch. Problem is replicating it so I can actually experiment. Sometimes it'll only happen once, so it misses, I try again, and it shifts. I could try clutchless if it reappears.
Yeah, I only clutch when starting and stopping. Less wear on the clutch and cable, and the drivetrain is designed to take it if you unload it properly and shift at the right time.
it somethimes happens with mine when the lever does not go down to the maximum before i push it up with my foot.
No cable on these. Yvoshkiro, how many miles do you have on the bike? Have you narrowed it down to ONLY when you don't clutch fully?
