I have no lube atm so will try that stuff out

Cush drive rubbers... If they are worn would they give the feeling of play through the chain as you let the clutch out? As if the chain & sprockets are turning a couple of degrees before the drive reaches the wheel?

Yep and feel a slight "bump" when throttling off.

Who mentioned Cush drive. I don't think mine are too bad really. Nothing that warrants buying new ones anyway. If I need to and there is any wear in the blocks, I shall just pack them out with some plastic.

Hahaha I might try and stuff some pants & socks in the gaps! It's worked in the past

Since I've renewed my C&S's it feels like my Cush drive rubbers are worn the bump is there too off the throttle, thanks for confirming. Will change them soon.

let us know where you get them from, I will need to get some fresh ones for my bike in the near future, iirc d.s sells originals for just over £40

[lloydie]

buy the best you can (oem) as they will last a lot longer than the cheaper crap .
i brought mine from honda for my blade and did 5k on them and fitted the old ones when it went.
i then fitted them in the vtr and now 15k later they are still good .
so for an extra £10-15 its worth it .

Ok cheers, makes sense to go for originals. I'll have to wait till after op storm though as I've just brought air filter & plugs

Funny, I didn't notice the worn feeling before I changed C&S's... ??

Try shimming the cush rubbers with cut up placcy from ice cream containers (benny tip no. 48)

I do like the rolly eyes emotion, but I don't use emotions appropriately half the time. You've heard of trigger happy, i'm smiley happy No offence meant wicky. I added it because I mentioned using plastic earlier.
