We'll i got my newly purchasedbike back from inspection and all the bull**** the dealership puts you through yeah they rapped me and no i didn't like it.So i decided to take it for the first real ride yesterday let me start by saying i may be in love. So the kickstand switch played with me a little bit. just trying to pull real slow out of garage and evrytime i put in gear bike shut off. It took me a couple seconds to figure out what was going on the old buell didn't have that well it may have just didn't work. But anyway here is the question when in neutral and you shift to first does all the 954 have a load shift. I'm kind of figuring that is the nature of the beast i figured i'd post just to make sure.

 

Not sure I understand what you mean... I'm guessing that's my ignorance! I'll take a shot - do you mean should there be a clunk when going into first from neutral?

If so then yes, it's a constant mesh gearbox.

If this doesn't help then I am sticking with, "someone else asked this question, whoops!"

 

+1. Clunk = Loadshift.

 

Dont worry Kid, i will bail ya out, i never heard of "load shift" either. Guess we are both just idiots

 

Thats to funny i meant to type loud shift.

 

Clunk is the sound of power being engauged. I doubt the Beull could make that noise

Be safe on that thing....
