Clutch and shifting questions

That and bleeding your clutch . . . . check out the Wheels Off Maintenance Checklist.

 

And to get to know, and love, your V11 even more: Tank Off Maintenance Checklist

 

But only after you've done a a Decent Tune-up

 

Three "compendium" threads that *should* keep you from buying every V11 you see and squirreling them away in your tidy garage . . . 

I read all of those before I even got the bike. But I doubt I'll get to all of them right away. Tune up for sure. Weather has been weird this year. We hit 70 for the first time in 2017, the latest in the year anyone can remember. So maybe I will have time to put it on the bench. After a secessful trip to the DMV...

I still had some issues getting into first when hot. Still some tweaking to do.

You should have removed the bolt to see if the bolt shank is worn . If so , replace it .

Just how dark is does the fluid look in the reservoir?

It's not dark at all.

 

I suspect it might be the clutch lever. I had it adjusted so that it may not have been compressing enough before hitting the bar.

 

It will be at least another week before it stops raining to test it out.
