I wouldn't consider it a clunk, but there is some noticeably rough shifting between 1st and 2nd.

I switch riding between the CB and my Triumph Bonneville, a brand that also has a reputation for smooth transmissions. I still consider the CB's shifting to be smooth, but the Triumph is more refined, buttery smooth. Almost flawless.

I wouldn't hold this against the CB though; I've rode enough Harleys to know what a clunky transmission is (not knocking Harleys, I'm actually considering getting a Dyna as a third bike lol)and the Honda's way more refined.
