I have a 2006 ER6F model and as far as I can tell is the same mechanically as the naked version.The question I wish to ask is whether I have a clutch problem or its my crappy gear changing.When shifting from neutral to first whether stationary or moving you get quite loud clunk.Also when upshifting through the lower gears it's a bit of hit and miss as to whether it's a good or noisy change.I don't get a chance to ride very often and my first assumption is that my technique for changing gears is incorrect.
Could somebody enlighten me as to whether it's normal to be a little noisy going into first gear as described plus the noisy upshifting and it's just my technique or is it a clutch problem?
