It won't.

He didn't. PB has deliberately not yet drunk the Cool Aid. Sooner or later his folly will catch up with him. That will be sad, but he will not be able to say that his friends didn't warn him.

I hear what you say, and feel for PB. But I've got double trouble myself to deal with. The Precious twins keep whispering from the dark storage place.

... oh, this will never end I can see.
Winter is responsible for all these gags..it will naturally die in spring
So the RLET flowers in the winter? Okay, got it.
yap...
if we didn't gag/argue, forum would be less interesting, and you would never score 1652
This sounds all so fictional, or to some maybe in denial.
More of a click with some tactile feed back for me when downshifting on the move.
Must say, I love the clunk and little jump the bikes makes when selecting 1st when at a standstill, like it's saying "let's go...."
On the other hand, I get no such noises or tactile feedback when selecting 5th. Getting into 5th first time is not a guaranteed result sadly.
HR, you’re so right about the clunk when selecting first.
Is your problem with 5th shifting up or down? (I can’t remember whether you have a 2013 bike or later.)
Edit: I just saw the picture here
http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread....#pid230105 so it must be upshifting. It sounds odd. An you describe what happens? Or doesn’t?
Most likely cause not shifting deliberately

Don't most standard shift m/c's go "clunk" into first gear when stopped? I don't recall any that didn't.
You could well be right Ferret. Got new boots so no longer using 'normal every day' ones that had more feeling to the top of the foot, however, where all the upshifts to 2, 3, and 4 snick into place quite nicely, getting into 5th takes 2 or 3 attempts. Becoming niggled by it a tad.
But I'll keep on being more 'deliberate' and keep on getting used to the boots and hopefully will learn to shift 'properly'
When it does go in, it's very slick, more to do with the lever moving than hearing/feeling it change gear as with the others if you follow.
I've just started wearing some new boots too and they've changed my relationship with the gear lever. I notice it more when shifting down, they seem to leave me having more weight on the lever which means it doesn't quite return to the point where it's ready to move down to the next gear. It's taking a bit of getting used to.
I wonder why one gear would be notably different?
