Morning all,

Just want to run this past you all if I may. I've had my 2010 ZZR1400 for a while now. It's got 33k on the clock. Impeccable service history and has been really well looked after. Most of it's miles have been spent touring round France and Spain.

One thing I've notice is every now and then I get a kick back feeling on the gear selector. It happens more when I'm going for it.

It goes into gear absolutely fine and for the most part it's smooth as anything but like I say now and again I get a very noticeable tap on my foot. Only happens when going up through the gears.

Chain tension is spot on. The engine is smooth as anything. It's hydraulic clutch but that look OK.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers all

Gaz

Did DAS 4 months later then bought RF600 Loved it, sold it bought Bandit 1200(K3). EFFIN lOVED IT. Wanted something a bit more sporty so got Triumph Sprint ST 955i (53). Not sporty enough so now on my GSXR 1000 K3 and absolutely love it. 1 year down the line, nearly died way too many times on this bike. Sold it. Had a 6 month break. Missed biking so now, Aug 2019 have a 1999 ZX9r. What a beauty she is too.
