Clutch - Odd??

usranger74 · 08-20-2010, 02:44 PM

I often stop my Nomad in 1st gear and turn it off as I park it.

As of late, I have noticed that when I start my bike (with clutch depressed) it has a very slight lurch forward as the bike starts up.

Today I washed my bike and after drying I tried starting her and that "very light lurch" froward was considerably more. In fact with the clutch depressed the bike move about 5 feet forward then started.

I have now tired starting her 3 times and experienced no lurch forward.

Has anyone experienced this??

Update - - Thank you for the info and advise. All is well when I start in N.
