Grin... I can just see the shift pedal working against that set screw...
Actually... the draconian measure I was thinking about was replacing the hammer
rail. This is a 3 year old C6. I know of a 2 year old C7 that exhibits the same
kind of play problem and I will be checking that out for this as well.

But to the solution then.... the Yamahas have this peice of aluminum on the
front of the rail, perhaps thats not doing the job. I wonder if it could be
replaced with something a bit more heavy duty ? Anyone replaced a rail before
because of this ?

I gotta do something thats for sure. There's just too little coming out of this
thing.

Cheers
