The seal does a lot at the end.
I have the shift lever flush with the end. ...lm

Also, How much lateral end play should the gear change spindel shaft have?
With the left engine cover, the clutch and the shifter removed, I am getting 0.205"(in and out) travel. Bad? Possible causes?

Call you local Honda (motorcycle) dealer and have them look up part number 22431-259-000 in their dealer parts locator. If available, they can give the the phone number of the dealer with stock.

I took the old dream out for a 20-mile test ride yesterday. I am getting a lot of clutch slip when I get into the torque curve, eg. going up hills or more than medium throttle in 2nd gear or above.

I am using Valvoline 4-stroke 10W40 motorcycle oil (it says meets JASO MA spec). Also, I put the clutch together dry. I read later that the fiction disks should be oiled prior to assembly?

Any thoughts or suggestions on a fix? Thanks in advance.

Ed: Just went for a ride. Nice crisp shifts, good pull from a full stop. I guess measuring the right thing makes all the difference. What kind of booze do you drink? I owe you. Many thanks!!!
