main culprits seem to be chain and oil. Mines done it pretty much since I bought it from a garage so I'm not really sure why it does it unless the trader was a monkey.


Mines a 2000 SVS if it matters.

Chain adjusted? Helped a lot with mine.

still happens to me occasionally - or it gets stuck in neutral and won't select 1st. Normally solved by a quick blip of the throttle.

Ensure clutch adjustment is spot on. If the bike has a significant mileage, there is a possibility that the detent plunger or spring is worn.

cheers guys for the info, turns out to much oil....phew, :D happy again
