Hi all
Two weeks into 04 ownership now and still in love, despite the rain and the inordinate amount of steam emitting from between my legs when in traffic.
A few observations/questions though -when cold, 1st to 2nd is more than a tad stiff, more like kick it and hope, sometimes in vain. The neutral situation is extreme, and having a 916 I'm quite familiar with the down from 2nd only approach, but the Mille is sometimes impossible, in that she won't kick up into 2nd when stationary, so I can't do the dance. So.
I will do the jet mod as soon as time allows. But will this ease my shift problems? Clutch doesn't act like it has air in it, but I suppose a bleed wouldn't do any harm. The only other thing I can think of is the clutch lever travel, which I'd brought in due to shortish fingers. I haven't worked out the angles but I'm sure the piston must be fully depressed when the lever is at the bar.
Any other suggestions, exp[eriences? Funny thing is, I don't really mind any of the above, it's all worth it.
is only found after an indelicatedance down from second
