Hello from San Diego County

[Ray]

I have to say the quick shifter on the new bike is very clunky compared with the old one. Anyone else having a problem shifting down clutchless from 4th to 3rd? Mine locks sometimes and won't shift down and I have to use the clutch to get into 3rd. It's an intermittent problem, though, and the dealer says he hasn't seen it during test rides of the bike. Just wondering whether anyone else has experienced this...--Charlie

Agree with Lee except I would say, it should work better than the 2015 R.

That said, general experience seems to imply a break-in period over which the shifter works better and better. Whether mechanical or rider, we can't say.

In the end - agree - don't let the dealer off the hook of your warranty.
