Re:Shifting Problems 5 Months ago  
there is a bearing that goes bad on the pressure plate. These were 2 symptoms that my bike had.

1. When pulling in clutch lever, sounded like crunching marbles

2. In 1st gear, clutch lever held all the way in, bike wanted to roll

there is a cross to this bearing that is better suited for the type of force vs the stock bearing

the replacement NSK 7003B with std 15 degree compact angle will take care of those extra forces on the throw out bearing.

I have problems in my hands, we have a long freaking light here and I shift into neutral, but I have a sticker on the trunk that says, "Some days your the windshield and some days your the bug" so its all good.
