Ok, so I pulled in this evening as I always do and was backing the bike in to park it in the garage. I noticed something that I had experienced and looking for some input.....
I had turned off the bike and was still in gear (2nd I think) and had the clutch lever depressed to disengage the tranny so I could go backwards. While going backwards, I felt something in the transmission when I first started to move the bike. Forwards/Backwards, it did it either way. I adjusted the tension on the clutch to see if that would help, it didn't appear to. The feeling was a slight thud that could be felt in either direction.
Maybe I'm just being overly concerned, but no changes in the bikes performance have been felt. I've pretty much babied it since I've owned it. (I've just recently started to try some roll-on wheelies in first, but no slippin' the clutch).
Guess I'm just looking for some advice to better educate myself on what might be happening.
Thanks,
BroHay
