I bought a new, er well used 2007 DL. Only 12,000Km so I would think that its new. :thumbup: Its an outstanding bike on all front and other than three small niggles: a scratch on the fairing, slightly messy installation of a grip heater and a clutch noise --- I'm all smiles.
The niggle around the clutch is what I am trying to track down. Shifting is smooth and quiet through all gears except for shifting up from 1st to 2nd. When I shift from 1st to 2nd, I hear and feel a bit of a klunk. Now I come from a dry clutch bike, so I am used to hearing a noise clutch, but this is a wet clutch and all other gears are quiet and smooth. Should I be worried or is this common with the DL?
