550 K1 : up-shifting issues (mostly low RPMs)

<< < (3/9) > >>

Searching back through my memory I did have similar gearshift issues off a cb550, was something undef the clutch cover, cannot remember what. Mostly I remember tipping then bike over so as to not loose the oil while fixing it.

I was afraid of this feedback... Opening engine was something I wanted to avoid

With only 15,000 miles Erny, I would consider and investigate all other options before taking the engine apart.

Erny:
Sure! Opening engine is the LAST action.
It is pity that gearbox cannot be replaced w/o opening cases like on nowadays bikes

Start on clutch casing and release mechanism, I have a hunch that was where my problem lay. How good is the clutch cable? Start with the easy stuff.
