Suspect clutch more than gears TBH. Especially if it's related to heat.
Will check the clutch adjustment at both ends.

It seems smooth and light.

When you zoom in at the connectors inside the headlamp bucket, you will see other blind female connectors for your device both BLACK and GREEN.

Will have a look inside the headlight bucket.
Thanks.

As mentioned above, straighten bracket so it's perpendicular to the plate, then run the tap through the hole and offer the bolt to the tap to check the threads are the same before trying to force the bolt in. After tapping it should go in by hand.

Depends on the exact spec of the oil, diesel 10w40 is better than petrol 10w40

I'll check when I go into garage tomorrow, seem to recall it could be diesel 10W40.

Is this a common trait?  Don't recall my original in 1976 giving issues !!

On my model it is here (blue arrow in pic below). It is conveniently positioned close to the tool tray, where I keep my USB connection for when I need it.

Perfect, thanks.  Not checked yet but If I haven't got a spare female I'll join it to a convenient black.

Oil and filter are about 200miles old.

After riding and the engine/gearbox are hot, I've noticed the gears are harder to engage and quite often get a missed gear between 1-2 and 3-4.

Could this be due to selector forks or worn dogs on gears, or clutch possibly.

Any ideas ??

Hi,
As title says I'm hoping someone can tell me the best way to get a feed for my Quad Lock wireless charger from. I've currently (see what I did there?)  ;D, got it connected directly at the battery but obviously can't stay like that.
I want it to become live with the ignition on only.

Pointers to which wire and location please.

TIA

Thanks for the replies, I'm out the country at the moment with work so can't view it. He sent a clip via WhatsApp  so I can't copy it and put on here. It was a ride past so didn't hear it ticking over.
Think I'll pass.
Cheers.
