Perhaps it's because it's now done 21,000 miles, maybe 20k is the magic number?? Bizzare.
No sorry Nooj, mines done almost 23k and it aint cleared yet!

LOL ... the familiar Falco rider's tap dance !
Some days it seems worse than others - occasionally no problem at all. No idea why.
Proves these bikes are female - let's face it, we haven't a hope in hell of understanding why they do the things they do!

Yes, same problem as all the others.
I also have a "grabby" clutch when the bike is cold. If I am in gear with the clutch lever pulled in all the way, I still get some drive. Not a lot, but enough to roll me forward at a light if I lift my feet, and bog the engine a bit when not moving. Yes, I have tried changing the position of the clutch lever, but it didn't help.

No, actually. That's not it.
