    So long Max...

    Just to clear the air, the Max was my uncle's who was killed on a bike. The last time we were together he told me about it, definitely his favorite of the 6 bikes he owned at the time. When they went up for sale, my cousin wanted it to go somewhere special so I grabbed it, cleaned it up...

    Shifting from neutral to 1st - jerking motion

    Noticed the same during the early days. It seems like if you can get it rolling just a little it goes into 1st from neutral much quiter. Also, when downshifting from 2nd to 1st at a stop it is least "clunky" if you do it while it's still moving forward a touch.
