Noticed several times yesterday while out riding like is not wanting to go back into first unless completely stopped..anyone else have this issue?

 

I have the 17 RK and when I first started riding I noticed 'feeling' the downshift in the clutch lever. I felt it more so trying to downshift to first and even second when still moving at some speed. Slow or near stop then I don't feel it at all.

I am coming from a cable clutch on my previous softail and would never feel this. I think this is just a characteristic of the new hydraulic clutch... at least that is what I've convinced myself of.

 

Mine grinds..and doesn't slip in unTil stopped..not all the time but enough for me to notice..

 

Doesn't sound right to me. IMHO.

Clutch adjustment or better transmission lubricant like BelRay or Redline. My TC shifts silky smooth after I went to BelRay.

BTW...I'm sure you all know this. But, even with the clutch in, don't shift into a lower gear at a speed you would not normally ride in.
