Thanks for that post.. my new Richmond 6 speed feels a bit tight going into 3rd, and so I was wondering if it is just new and needs some "marrying"
before she gets smooth.. I have only local miles on her, so have only gone to 4th gear so far...other gears feel sweet.
Have a Centerforce 2 (W/ hydraulic Throwout) clutch, that despite having a slightly leaky/bad "O" ring, is as sweet as can be for shifting. Repair coming this week, and then we can see how the linkage is adjusted, etc...

UPDATE:
The transmission was WAAY low on fluid.. like several quarts...it came this way from West Coast cobra. Good thing I only put a few easy miles on her, short hops ! She shifts sweet as can be now, and I expect her to get better ! By the way, go with a hydraulic clutch if at all possible, it is sweet!
