Howzit,

I've noticed that when I shift from 1st to 2nd, it feels like im gonna fuck up the transmission. Feels rough going in. Someone said that most honda's shift that way. Its just like that?

Anyone else notice this and Is this normalage?

I don't know. When I shift from 1st to 2nd I get this weird chirping sound from the tires. Is this normal? ;)

Pull the shifter to the extreme left when you shift, it should help.

Absolutely:p

I have noticed 1st to 2nd could be smoother. And pulling it to the left as in the previous post does help some.

All my shift throws are nice and smooth.....can't wait till someone releases a short throw shifter.

I also experiance massive amounts of chirping when going from 1st to 2nd....I have been able to rip 3rd a few times also.
