gear problems

[will harvey]

hi every 1 posted a problem on here but was told i might get more responce of this page. I have a 96 xj600n and having problems changing down the gears especially from 3rd downwards going up gears is fine recently had new clutch plates and clutch cable been advised it could be clutch needle bearing but if any 1 else has an idea would be appreciated

Try a little blip of the throttle when the clutch is pulled for downshifts..it.works wonders
