Morning folks,
I?ve searched the forum but found some posts that were useful, but wanted to ask a question on here?
2018 S1K RR with 1400 miles and 700 miles since the first oil dealer service and checks. Within the last 150 miles I have been experiencing upshift QS issues. Just not sure if it is me or not being too timid on the QS upshift. Downshifts with the QS are fine from any revs.
Occasionally when the engine is warm and I have been riding for more than 30 minutes or so in 3rd or 4th gear at about 8-12K revs under hard acceleration the QS doesn?t upshift properly and stays in the same gear which is scarey as she feels like she wants to launch me over the front of the bars. It upshifts fine at lower revs and when not accelerating too hard.
It is still under warranty, I?m happy to take it to the main dealer but it can be up to 4 weeks at present to get a service slot.
Qu. Am I being too timid with my foot movement on the upshifts?
I am assuming it will only engage one gear at a time on the upshift and cannot block shift up say 2 gears on one foot movement?
Is there a checklist of things to check first as a post elsewhere on this forum that someone can refer me too?
Eg Chain tensioned correctly?
Eg Clutch cable tensioned correctly?
Thanks in advance
