Another place to check is the differential mounts. When we were at the VTR in CA last October, my wife's TR250 was juddering badly.

We took it to a shop, after a test drive they took it into the shop and put it on jack stands. Then with the engine running, they applied the brakes and let out the clutch. (They applied the brakes to provide some resistance). You could see the differential wind up to one side, then swing back to the other and repeat the process.

After the differential mounts, were replaced the problem was gone.

has started to judder badly and I have to use more than the normal amount of
revs to get away smoothly in 1st and 2nd gear.
I don't rhink rhat it's due to
oil leaking from either the gearbox or the engine getting on the clutch plate.
The engine mounts don't look too bad... haven't looked at the gearbox mount
yet... all were new 7500 miles ago.
What other causes  might there be?
