Delay in shift

[Hawk]

I have a 2011 RTS SE-5 and every now and then there is a second or 2 delay in shifting. Seems to happen mostly between 3rd and 4th gear. Does not happen all the time either. I also have the vibration that everyone else has been talking about. About to take her in for the 600 mile service and will tell the dealer about that as well. Anyone have the delayed shift?

see post somewhere else in this section about that exact same issue. I think you needed to shift at a higher RPM point and it goes away.

Shift from 2nd to 3rd and from 3rd to 4th between 4000 to 4500 rpm.

I have that problem at times shifting from 1st to 2nd. I did find that shifting at a higher rpm stops it

I will make sure I shift over 4k from now on.

Mine has been in the shop for over 3 weeks for this but mine was between 1 and 2. They said it was a stray voltage getting into the silinoid and allowing it to stay open slightly. :gaah: I hope I get it back soon.

Shifting at higher RPM's will usually cure it, as they are not supposed to be able to upshift below a certain RPM threashold. They are also a bit sensitive as to the oil level, so you need to make sure you are staying on top of that as well.

Not sure its connected, but I also have the delay in shifting gears again
this is intermitten and usually in the lower gears
This has only been apparent since I had the Safety Recall Notice - SE5 Clutch Sticking Engaged Warranty work done

I wondered if others have had this issue before the Clutch recall or since
Just in case there is a new problem and we are increasing the Revs to change gear and masking a new problem when we should be having BRP look further into a potential safety issue

When you accelerate its like a turbo lag without the turbo before the engine picks up - Just worried ref overtaking and losing power at a vital
moment
