Neutral problem
 
I collected the bike yesterday :D :D but I’m having trouble getting it into neutral, takes ages to find.

Has anybody else experienced this. (The bike has 22K but with FSH).

I had that, as soon as the chain was adjusted it dissapeared. Don't know but that might be your problem. :D

Check the oil level - is it over filled? This will make finding neutral difficult.

Yup agree with FS. Either oil could be too high, too low or the clutch cable needs to be adjusted. Shouldn't be any more than that considering the mileage of the bike.

I'd suspect the clutch adjustment myself... Mine seems slightly temperamental with that and needs adjustment fairly often. But the others are all right as well, it could be any of those things.

One tip is instead of doing it while stationary, roll it forwards slightly and try and shift while moving- tends to be easier. That's just as a workaround till its fixed of course.
