I used a dutch girl more than once.
Oh clutch. This text is too small.

Yeah, me too. Then she moved in with my brother and had kids and shit. What a strange world it is.

How long did she last on your drive-shaft? Burned plates or did you use a good lubricant? (I'm assuming a wet sump - but let me know if this was not the case)

Probably might have been a huge effort balance wise and strength to do that.
Reminds me of a Volvo FL6 metro truck where the clutch hoodaki failed, 6 speed synchro box. Was a big company where everyone caned the gear too and their breakdown backup for drivers was shocking.
So rang them and told them an issue but can probably get it back to yard. Shifted nicely up and down almost roadranger style just rev matching and easing load.
Left it in first at junctions, stalled if needed to stop then just cranked the starter like hell and fired out into busy roundabouts nicely

Those Volvo 6 speeds only need the clutch for stop start anyway, such a smooth box for a truck. More like a car box really. Most people develop a lazy leg when driving them for a period of time.Probably might have been a huge effort balance wise and strength to do that.

It wouldn't ... it was a trick to get neutral even when stopped and with the clutch in ... easiest way was to turn it off then find neutral ... old Triumphs you know ..

New KTM's as well.

Some modern bikes lock you out of neutral when moving.

Kawasaki's lock you out of second until you are moving. That system fucks out often, and when it's working makes them a cunt to clutch start.

Never owned a box like that myself. Was riding one when a good alternative seemed to be grabbing neutral and coasting the rest of the way to bike shop. Bastard would not go in until the magic < 20k was achieved. Brand spankers ex250 with a faulty clutch or tranny. I was trying to take it for compliance. Road it back to workshop instead.
