Default Street Twin

I have had my street twin in may car for about 4,000 miles and since day one it has always let out at the top. Is this ok??? I have the adjustable master. Do i have it adjusted right? I also have noticed that when iam shifting fast i have trouble getting it into 2nd like it grinds before it goes in. It never slips or chatters.

It moves the fluid in the master doesn't adjust the clutch. Lets say you move the rod 1/2" further to the top. That would be more fluid it would be pushing. Same thing is you move the rod 1/2" farther lower. It would push less fluid. The ideal place for disengagement is even with the break pedal. So you should move the rod lower so it pushes less fluid which would make it engage even with the break pedal.

No that will not help you. Should be lower.
