Your idle speed has nothing to do with shifting at high rpms.... Or shifting in general for that matter. Make sure your clutch is adjusted properly and try again. If it still does it, then it'll either be a shift fork, or shift drum issue. Replacement of those is annoying, but not too difficult to do, requires you to drop the oil pan and remove your clutch.

I haven't been able to ride though i did need to make the clutch a bit looser and i put the idle speed down so im hoping its good after that.

Hi , we were talking about preloading the shift for clutchless changing up , so dont really need any excess engine rpm when rolling off the throttle

Hello, the OP is about shifting at high rpm, he also stated he's not clutch less shifting from first to second...so I'm kind of lost as to what you're on about.

When I preload the shifter it reduces the grinding but doesn't get rid of it. Any ideas on what I can do.
Here matey ,he says about preloading the shifter for a up gear change ,and i said always use the clutch for 1st to 2nd gear and clutchless the rest, might of assumed he was attempting clutchless from 1 to 2
