Hi Everyone,

I was able to get a short test drive on a 2023 V100S and really enjoyed it. The only thing I really noticed that was odd was I could really feel the combustion pulses through the clutch lever. It was actually quite noticeable. It was only on the clutch side of the handlebars.

Wondering if that is normal or something I need to address with the dealer.

I just bought a slightly used V100s today. Mine does what you described. There is definitely a pronounced pulsation that's felt through the clutch lever. I contacted the MG dealer where I bought it and was told that it's normal. Some do it more than others. As today was the first time I've ever ridden a V100, I have no idea if it's normal, except for what the dealer says. Anyone else have the issue???

I've owned many motorcycles over the last 45 years and most have had a wet clutch. This is the first time I've ever felt a pulsation through the clutch lever.
 
Light pulsing was there on my V100 S but nothing terrible. The clutch had not so good feel and it was really bad during downshifts, maybe the antihop mechanism or someting else, but the feeling was vague
