Hi all,

Hope you are all well.

My X1 keeps grabbing under slightly heavy load in 1st gear when pulling away like i am slipping the clutch briefly, I have read up a bit and it seems its the 'dogs'. How much is this to fix? Anyone done it? Or should I just nurse the bike in 1st......

My M2 has done it for years now, relatively easy to get round with no ill effects. A partial drop of the clutch before you set off gets round it, you can feel it before you actually move
