I had 48Kon my 89. The guy that bought it rebuild it, and he said the transmission and clutch looked like new. It had a kevlar clutch in it before I got it at 8K miles. So I guess I have been very gentle on them ...
I never clutchless shifted anything in my life. I also maintain it like a maniac cos I am a hard core creature of habit. All my bikes need to have the same play and engagement points etc on it, else I'll stall one or over rev the other. Yea ... all makes and types, cruiser, power cruiser, beginner, sport bike etc ... all the same. Hydraulic and manual too ...
Cool.
Srinath.

The problem with doing it on a motorcycle is that there's no neutral between most of the gears to allow the engine to match the speed of the drivetrain. 
Sorry, I won't answer motorcycle questions anymore.  I'm not f%$king friendly enough for this board.  Ask me at:
webchat.freequest.net
or
irc.freequest.net if you have an irc client
