Mine won't downshift at all if I am not moving. Gotta
slightly engage the clutch to get it to shift while
sitting still. Don't know if its normal or not...probably
not. Bet Mark knows!

Seems I have to rock
the shift lever and then engage
to desired gear in order to downshift when at a stand
still.
Anyone else have that problem?

Mine misses third sometimes. I found that if I held the
shift lever down until I'd completely released the clutch
it helped a lot.

Happens only once in a while, maybe 5% of the shifts.
Sometimes you need to
try it up to 4 times. Eventaully it will shift again but
this kind of thing
is very rare
IS this within the range of normal Guzzi charater or is
it something I can
improve on whenever I get to exploratory surgery ??

Thanks
