What are the odds of getting two bad shifting bikes...back to back ?
Astronomical.

As RedHawks noted I had found my shifter bolt tight but it still was sloppy.
I had to tighten to extremes to take the slop out.

If you find the gap all closed up when tightening you can take a hacksaw blade
And cut a sliver out so that there is still a gap after tightening

BTW,my bike shifts as beautifully as my Vstrom which is sweet.
