One of my mates with a 850 had same problem. Clutch drag causing poor selection of gears and neutral. Cause was badly adjusted clutch cable, after adjusting still not perfect stripped out and had a look inside. The nut holding clutch basket had loosened off which let basket float up and down shaft. Not by very much lucky if it was 0.5 of a mm but enough to cause drag. My mate learnt a lesson that day. Don't tighten nut whilst trying to stop basket shaft turning with a lever. He broke off part of basket that one of the spring goes over. Doh.

Hi there. You can get the b12 stem cut lower and machine bearing and threaded parts lower to suit or use a gsxr 750 stem. Can't remember what year suits the bandit lower stem as the newer ones just fall in. Remove lock stops from 750 frame and weld in a stop to bottom of yoke.

Merry Xmas to you all.
Looking for advice. I've got an EFE frame that I'm building up from scratch.
I've got a bandit complete rear end to fit, maybe not the best but it's a start. Thing is do I use the bandit shocker which I've heard wasn't the best when new or do I go for some thing else. All suspension mount points have been removed from frame and I have all mounting points for a bandit to weld into place. Front end will be standard B12 forks for a start
So any advice would be grateful on best shock and what sort of ride/seat height to go for
thanks in advance.

Hi there. One of my bikes a gsx11et with a bandit mk1 front end fitted. Used rf 900 bottom yoke. All that I neaded was a spacer to take up gap to make yoke hole at top smaller to suit rf stem. No height issues like you've got.
