a lot of the becs clunk when going into gear but the few blade engines iv heard dont clunk any way near as bad as the r1,,i think its all the back
lash in the gear box,,you could try a bailey morris prop pricy but worth it

Release the brake while you cram it in. The problem is the solid mounts and no cush drive same as my shaft drive bike, the energy has nowhere to go.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

It maybe the gear selector forks and related flange's on the gear's. Hope it isn't but it seems a popular flaw at the moment on
'blade's... sorry

Hmm... I am going to pick up my Bailey morris prop this week.. What do you call expensive. Mines £120. I just gave them the dimensions and the flange
sizes.
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards
