Well, they're ridin'!! Still love my bike. I've done almost 15 000kms with it in a little more than a year. Took it to do two 1000kms road trips in France. It was perfect. On the highway it's just not comfortable enough. If you have to do only a few kms, it's all right, but several hundred, geez, it's a pain. But well, that model isn't made for the highway. Can't help you with your clutch problem though, sorry. And I've got a Rizoma handlebar, so I don't have any trouble.

Hi guys, thanks for your advice. I'll try to go to a small motorcycle garage soon. I hope they'll accept, and it won't pose them too much problem.

Hi guys, I've got a little problem with my fuel tank cap (on my XJ6). When taking out the screws to change them, my fuel tank cap broke in some place. It's not dramatic per se, but it's not aesthetic! Here's how it looks now: There's no way to glue it, or even weld it; I asked around. My two options were to either change the whole cap, which means I'll have a new key just to the fuel tank, or buy another one and try to dismantle the outer circle from the inner one. So, I bought a second-hand cap. Thing is, I feel like the lock has some problems. When I put the key in it, I can't take it out! I had to take out the cap, and dismantle the locking system to get it out!! So, I'm a bit afraid that if I install that new cap, I won't be able to take out the key when I use it :/ What I'm trying to do, as an alternative, is dismantle the outer "circle". Here's a few pics from the back: What I think I have to take out, to split the circle from the rest, is that sort of blue/grey shaft at the top. It's not a single piece, it seems like it's two short shafts meeting in the middle. There's some kind of liquid, maybe glue, or grease. I have no idea how to take it out without breaking it. Has any of you had to do such a thing? I'm not really a handywoman, and I've just got basic tools

Hi Scott!
