Hi Guys

Got an 87 Evo the box runs well but very hard to find neutral while idling is this a selector drum problem or forks or something else???

They are always hard to notch into neutral. Having said that I just adjusted my clutch the other week and suddenly I can pull up at a set of lights and snip her into neutral no worries. Mind you it drags a little until warm, but a small price to pay.

And make sure you haven't put too much oil in the gearbox coz that can make finding neutral hard.

thanks guys will rip the primary off in the morning and work my way through to ajusting the clutch from there with all the road works up this way it would be nice to have neutral

well I ajusted the primary and changed the oil then ajusted the clutch and changed the gear oil with a fully synth and she will slip into neutral while rolling to a stop but idling at a stop is a no go for neutral so it looks like I will be ripping the box out of the old girl

thanks for the help guys it was all worth a try cheers

if the bikes gearbox works fine whilst it riding no noise changes nice apart from hard to find neutral when stopped why pull it out these bikes are like tractors even the late
twincams are hard to find neutral at times it will never be like a jap bike maybe learn to drop it in to neutral before you stop + 1 to what ever one else has said

Hey Bourkie 

Plus pulling the tranny is not going to fix your problem...I run harley primary oil with great success. ATF also works for some as its thinner

I've done 40 000 miles on Mobil ATF in the clutch, everything works very well

All fixed an old mate from Kentucky told be to put in a Baker selector drum just finished and took it for a run it changes better than any harley I have owned thanks guys
