| Re: 08 blades clutch I noticed that if I'm at a stop light and have the bike in neutral with the clutch out the bike vibrates a little bit, as soon as I pull the clutch in, it goes away. |

| Re: 08 blades clutch I just thought it was a normal characteristic of the higher powered hondas, Because the 08 is new it will take some time for people to get used to its quirks.

| Re: 08 blades clutch The clutch sensation you are referring to has to do with the new slipper clutch. If it bothers you, tach it up to about 5000 to 6000 rpm & release the clutch rapidly. This works great & I would highly recommend it. |
