Clonky gearbox
Hi to everybody.
Have 2008 ten with 10 k on the clock. Works fine, but lately I started to wonder whether it is normal that the gear switching is so clonky.
My son has a yammi WR250X with a butter smooth gearchange. Why then is the Ten so agricultural.
A made a check on the stand, with rear wheel raised from the ground and the engine off. What I have found is that when I select the 1st gear, I can not move the rear wheel even with the clutch lever fully squezzed. In higher gears I managed to turn rear wheel, but with the high drag from the clutch.
Also if I start the engine with the 1st gear selected and clutch lever squezzed, it shows slight intention to move forward.
Now I don't know if such behaviour applies to all teneres, or do I have some issue with the clutch. If it is normal, I can live with clonking, because it actually does not affect riding.
But if it is not all that normal, then I would be happy if someone can point out what may be the cause, and in which direction to search for rectifying this.
Thanks
