I am delighted with my XSR700 but I do find that the clutch biting point is very sensitive.
I have experience of over 40 bikes, ancient & modern but have never experienced sutch a sharp clutch action.
Is it a known problem on the XSR? or is it a matter of something not quite correctly adjusted?
I thought I might get used to it but having done nearly 1K miles in the first month, while I can manage pulling awy straight ahead without a problem, turning while pulling away as at a junction is still tricky. It is a slight problem also in stop and go traffic but generally I find that the engine's superb flexibility helps.
Comments please.
