Running rough
Hey Folks, new to the forum.
I just got my 954rr a couple months ago... so far LOVE the bike. My problem isnt when i rev high, it's when the bike is coming down from those high rpm's. I don't know whats going on so I'll try and explain it the best i can. The bike just start clicking almost like its stuck between 1st and N. It's pretty much is just skipping down the road. And sometimes I have troubles getting the thing into 3rd gear.
Anyone have any idea what's going on here? Thanks a million!

RE: Running rough
This happens every time? Only upon deceleration? Ever on an upshift? Are you making a good SOLID shift or just lightly clicking through? The 954 is a constant mesh system and setup to aviod a missed shift. Possible you have worn out parts or just too light on the shift lever... Do you fully clutch it every time?
I'm pretty sure I know just what you are talking about... I don't think you are fully shifting the bike. Make sure you use that clutch on down shifts.
Any pictures of your 954 to share with us?

RE: Running rough
I was affraid it was going to be like this..... Seems to me like you have worn out parts...
I've not come across this on a bike.. So I don't have solid advise on this issue.
Do you know the person you purchased the bike from? If so, did they ride it really hard? Do you know anything about the maintainence history? Or any of the bike's history? How many miles? Any other quirks, noises or abnormalities?
Really sorry to hear that your new bike ishaving issues..
I love my 954. These are sweet machines. I'd get her serviced and keep on riding rather than selling the bike and taking the loss. (If you were thing of this option)
There are many members here with good experience and advise. Give this thread some time so they can find it.
Good luck!

RE: Running rough
From Newfoundland Canada.
The chain is a fairly new RK with the correct play. I was just out on the bike now and i got the rpms pretty high and let off with no problems. Seems to happen without warning more so in the lower gears though.
Thanks all. Keep the good info coming!
