Maybe double clutching helping is all in my head. I dont think its necessary, it works without it, but to me it feels like it does or makes things easier. I have not driven another twin, but say I am going in 2nd, slow down too much, and have to get into first to go, it doesnt do without some work on my end. Certainly I think that rev matching into first makes for a smoother take off.
It did get better over time. I'm at tender mileage of 33k kms, so yea, not overly "broken in" by some people's standards .
I also even find 2nd a bit clunky, so 1st is roughest, second is about half as bad, 3 and up its easy peasy.
