ITS A WRAP!!!!
after bothering everyone ,, it has come to and end,, turns out i didnt mess with the THRUST WASHER,, i wouldve remembere,, seeing the ball bearings on the shaft looking me in the face, just noticed it in a photo in the clutch section of the manual i downloaded , all i have to say is that i want to thank everyone ( and you all know who you are) for helping and putting up with me,, i am now an official clutch expert!,, i can probably change one out in less than a half hour and dial it in LUV LUV,, this bike is loving life now,, can pull it up in second by just twisting the throttle,, forget about launching the thing,, unless your on a swim team ,, cause this thing wants to do a gainer!,, its a beast! its not creeping anymore cause i took it for a ride,, got her nice and warmed up,, then re adjusted the cable in both places,, and it doesnt creep anymore and i AM able to find neutral! makes riding so much more fun,, lastly we though oil might have been a factor,, and i am still considering going to the grape seed oil,, Motul just because after she sits for any long length of time i do notice a tick so to speak,, and it takes a minute or two to go away which is my bearings doing the tango.. thanx again to all,, ive babbled long enough,, gonna take a break now!

READ MY LAST NOTE I POSTED BEFORE I READ THIS! AMEN!!
Remember, I Believe Motul Secret is Grape Seed Oil! I have never seen where they admitted to using it! BUT If you read what that oil does and how Motul works not to mention the GREEN Color of the Oil, not a leap to think this! Second, look at all of the Oil in the test I posted. They were ALL Pao Based Oils and AMS/Oil came out better because they also used some Ester. Imagine an oil that is 50% Ester and 50% Pao then what do you have? The Moutl 300V is like having a SHot Gun to kill a Gnat for Street Riding! For Racing, it is like having a Shot Gun to Kill a Dog! Maybe Over kill, but not taking ANY Chances!
Last, now that you are in one direction, Entropy said he had used Kendall Oil! Well, back in the 80's a company named Kal-Gard made an Additive which was mostly Molly to add to the Oil. When they decided to make their own oil, they used the same formula of Kendall GT1 and added the Molly and called it Kal-Gard Oil! FOR NON Synthetic Oil, I do not think anyone makes better oil than Kendall!
