RE: [Honda-C70] Clunky shifting

clunky & abrupt until you get used to it . The shifter is declutching ,shifting , & reengaging with your foot movement . No chance to easy the clutch & feather the throttle. Down shifts are best done at low speeds . Use the heel shifter for up shifts & toe shifter for down & ride it like I stole it is smoothest for me . Good Luck ! Baby Huey

Subject: [Honda-C70] Clunky shifting

I just bought a 1980 C70 with 825 miles...It is running OK, but
shifting seems clunky and abrupt even though I am off the throttle
when shifting. What should the shifts feel like, and what if anything
should I do to improve them?
