Quite aware of this problem, worry is that I cannot see any fraying on the gearbox side, maybe un-viewable lever or an internal clutch problem, will be changing the cable soon as I need to install a new hi-flo air filter anyhow. Will see how it goes from there.
My saving for a CB500 is still a long way off, probably have enough saved by 2017, would have been 2016 if fair normal world prices, hopefully by then the price will have dropped and the X version will be available (but it's not a deal breaker as the other versions suit me pretty well anyhow).
