I finally got out to ride my bike with the Spectro. I am pretty sure it was a great improvement. I had noticed that I can now shift the bike into neutral much easier when it is parked & has not been run. (I used to not be able to get neutral 'easily' that way).
So, today, I wanted to ride to work, but I'm not that tough, 37* in the driveway, 31* in a couple of spots along the way (35 miles is too much for me). I was being economical though, I drove the Blazer to work, then, for my lunch, I drove back home & parked the Blazer & got the bike.
Where there is a will, there is a way.
At first, I didn't really notice any great improvement, but I figured it would get better as the bike warmed up. And it did! Since there was not much shifting after I left my driveway, I didn't notice it until I got off the expressway. The bike sounded real good, ran smooth, and the shifting was very smooth.....
I'm not sure how to describe the feeling other than it was smoother. I can still get a bit of the 'clunk' if I shift into first when I still have a bit of speed, (not much, but fast enough that I know I don't want to let out on the clutch going that fast)
Thanks for the recommendation Glider. Next ? Should I change the fluids sooner since I just recently put the new combination of fluids in the bike, or will I be okay to run it as is. The last 2 seasons, I only managed to get 2100 miles & 2400 miles or so respectively. We are planning on riding more this year and not flying as much.
I may be guilty of wanting to do the project again just to see how easy it really is. But, we are going to do hubby's bike this weekend. I might get my fix!
