Strange, my clutch free-play always increases as I ride . I had a notchy, reluctant tranny shifting problem when the bike was new. I decreased the clutch free-play to a minimum which made the bike rideable, and significantly improved shifting, which got much smoother with time.  Even now, bike is fully broken in, and free-play increases after time and clutch usage. Seems to close up/ decrease free-play when the bike sits and cools down.

Just try decreasing the free-play to a minimum for the hell of it. Give me your experience. I would like to know how your bike reacts/shifts/etc .

This is normal because the engine cases heat up and increase the clearances in the clutch actuating mechanism. Notchy gearbox is generally caused by short shifting and shifting to higher gears at low road speeds. A motorcycle gearbox shifts better as the road speed increases so bumbling around slowly styling it on the boulevard the shifting will be notchy and clunky. Go out and do a first to second shift revving the engine to 2500rpm in 1st and then the same shift revving it to 5000rpm and you'll see the difference.

I'm not sure if any two brands of motorcycles really shift the same. I'm not sure if models within a brand shift the same.
I'm pretty sure we all dial into what best works for a particular bike as it breaks us in.

G'day
New here and just brought a 650 twin, been having the stalling issue also. Have done all the quick fixes relays spark plugs greese cleaning etc. With no luck been sifting through forums and videos trying to work out this same issue. After talking to the dealer that sold me the bike he mentioned the throttle position switch may have to be replaced. But after a bit of throttle cable adjustment and removing the TPS cleaning it with electrical contact cleaner, reinstalling it and holding it in a clockwise direction while tightening it( it has a little bit of play on the screws) seems to have fixed the problem I cant make it stall like I could before "blipping" the throttle the revs hold and don't drop below 1100 no matter how much blipping I do.
Hope this helps if it hasn't already been said before.
Awesome bike, well built, and a ton of fun thank you Royal Enfield

Welcome to the forum. Pretty impressive first post .
Have you had a chance to let your dealer know about your solution? It might help to "back-feed" the information to the assembly line. There is a lot of DIY adjustment info for Suzuki motorcycles out there. But, of course, we don't know if the RE system is the same or just similar.
Again, welcome.

Thanks mate
Yea I let the dealer know he was just happy I wasn't another P.Oed customer flipping there lid over this common problem. Either way I've always got good info eventually from forums and like minded sick C**ts sharing good info just happy to help brother.
Thanks again 🤙

I know nothing, but I'm curious. While trying to learn what you guys are talking about, I found this:
 "Replacing the throttle position sensor will include clearing off the relevant faulty codes and may require software reprogramming".
I understood that he didn't replace it, but cleaned and re-adjusted it. Anyhow, what's about these faulty codes - are these a problem now for BrissyContinentalGT650?

I also found this: "It is always better to get the Throttle Position Sensor replaced rather than getting it cleaned because cleaning can come into handy for a few days, but over the long run, it may fail at any time. So make sure you get it replaced and not cleaned."

So, what should Brissy do?

[BrissyContinentalGT650]

Na no codes here man bike was running TPS screws loose then twist and tighten. To prove to myself while bike was running and screws loose I wiggled the TPS back and forth and the rpm raised and fluctuated. I do think the throttle cable adjustment had a lot to do with it also. Or it could just be my bike worth a shot but. As for your point of clearing codes that's for a already faulty TPS that has thrown up a code and yes that would have to be cleared via obd2 scanner/phone app and Bluetooth dongle

Hi all and greetings from Tasmania. My 650 is just over 4 weeks old and around 450k's.
It appears to have the same "feature" as the rest and is coming up for its first service so we will see.....
I have found that rather than blipping the throttle and just accelerating from idle everything appears OK so perhaps something in my riding style I need to change.

[Phil Mars]

Just got the bike back from its first service and I mentioned the stalling issue. They loaded a new map as there were some fault codes evident so we will see if it has made a difference although from experience firmware upgrades can go either way......

[AmirAkhrif]

Had the same issue and found a the problem.

The bike would stall in idle after a rev. The issue was the black rubber cover had slid down the throttle cable attached on the right side. Just slip it back up to the nut.

Works perfectly.

Hi, did anyone manage to fix your bike? I’m in Spain, having a very very similar issue with my Euro 5 Conti, the bike has been in the shop for the past 2 months, they redid the wiring and it seems to run well now, but displays an error conde that the mechanic can’t seem to get rid off, it’s an error regarding air pressure according to him. I’m beyond desperate so appreciate any help. This has been hell.
