It's going to feel a bit tight when the oil is stone cold but it soon warms up.
Change the oil for Pentosin MTF-2 as suggested, I will on mine when the weather cools down.
Just for the record. I picked up my GTS86 manual on Xmas Eve and have clocked just over 1000km.
I can snick it into 1st gear while it's moving without any problems at 20kph. No double clutching to rev match, just shove it from 2nd into 1st and let the clutch out. There have been many posts saying you can't, shouldn't shift into 1st unless it's stationary and it's a load of old cobblers.
