I looked at a 2014 GS with 1500 miles on it. Not running I pulled the clutch and it was tough for my weakened nerve damaged arthritic hands, I was rather discouraged, but with it running it was light and pleasant to pull, does this sound familiar to you SM5 guys? One of the features I like about the Spyder is the electric shift. I had a Honda NC700X with paddle shifters and loved it. But this 14 RS may be too good to pass up. Do all manual shift Spyders act like that? Clutch pull lightens up when running? I know my 14 Goldwing Valkyrie doesn't.
