Its a thing with VTRs, just dont pull away with that many revs. Dont need to with a big twin.

Rodger Ditchfield came up with a fix for it but its a lot of faffing about.

No props, it gives you some direction. If you do a search on clutch grab, there's quite a bit of info already out there. :thumbup:

Oh and welcome to the forum :beer: See the Read Me for New Members below in my signature. Plenty of info in there to get you started.
