Hi I have just bought a HD Fat Boy 2018 8 months old and It is near on impossible to find neutral when stationary. Any clues anyone? It seems if I slow up quickly to a near stop it is impossible but when travelling slowly and coasting I can find neutral 90% of the time. Help!
It’s under warranty so take it back to dealer for adjustment
Thanks for that, I already have once but not sure if they get it, saying it is relatively normal.
Dealer! Sounds like a simple clutch adjustment if it shifts in okay when your coasting to a stop. Do you know the service history or mods done to the bike?
Relatively normal? LOL dealer speak for couldn't be fucked.
I spoke to the previous owner last night she had the same issues but did nothing about it. Stock standard 2018 Fat Boy. My fear is that if the clutch plates have been overheated they now may be buckled.
Stop panicking the plates will be fine. The boys are correct its a simple clutch adjustment.....are you going to wk on the bike yourself? If so now is an easy fix to adjust the clutch otherwise you will be charged by the dealer for a simple adjustment
Damn, how can we instill a sense of extreme panic in the man if your going to chip in and tell the truth!
I recon get a service manual and then spend 10 mins doing the job himself as its one of the easier maint tasks on a Harley.
This is a hydraulic clutch now isn't it?
no cable
Cool, my money is on adjustment
they have had 2 goes at it, cant be that hard surely. Anyway they are going to pull it down and have a look.
Just read this post, is the clutch pull very light? or is it a heavy pull?
