Did you know I bought a 1982 Wing without ever having ridden a Wing of any stripe, any year, any model? I'm wishing I had ridden one that I knew to be in good working order, so I could compare mine to it.
I bought it with a disclosure from the previous owner that there were some shifting problems.
I am longing for my hydraulic clutch right now.
If I adjust it with adequate play in the lever, it is hard to shift.
If I adjust it so that it's easy to shift, it slips when I roll on the throttle in 3rd gear.
Assuming I can't get the right feel by adjusting the clutch cable, is my next logical step to service the clutch -- replace the clutch plates etc? According to previous owner this was done by the stealer in 4/2005. I suppose that if the clutch cable was ridden by the previous owner for 1000 miles with that kind of slippage, that the clutch might need replacing again so soon?
