Clunky Gear change 2010 Honda VFR 1200

Hi All

I have found that the gear change into 1st and from 1st to 2nd and from 2nd to 1st is very "clunky".

Is there any way to change it/Fix it? (except for getting a new bike lol)

Thank you

 

On a previous motorcycle I owned, shifts would feel clunky when the oil was dirty. It shifted much smoother with clean oil. You can also change brand/viscosity of oil.

 

It's brand new synthetic oil... And only first and second gear?
I'll drain it and maybe use a different brand.

 

Is it worse since the oil change? Have you used that brand/viscosity previously?

 

Yes, I used the exact same oil the second time.

Oh and BTW I love my new 2011 CBR 600RR (my second bike)
