I've got the new ones on! Good as sold the others. I was taking it easy it's just I don't think they're suited to me. New ones still have naked bit and are plenty sporty. Turn in is noticeably slower but I'm absolutely fine with that. Don't forget I've only ever done 7500 miles on the SV and some on a tractor!

My gearbox feels fine. Might just be the difference to your other bikes. Of course I have missed neutral now and then. Keep an eye on your chain. Apparently they stretch quickly. Only adjusted mine once though.

ohh annd-question for you and monkey-gearbox-are yours hard to find neutral on?? mine seems to be?

On my street triple(45 miles!!) I can only find neutral going from second to it. It's impossible to find from 1st for me!!
