Shifting into neutral

[Motu]

If you look on Merv's Coast to Coast report he has a picture of a Ural solo,you can see a vertical alloy lever,you could actual change gear by hand with it,but it wasn't positive stop,so you had to really feel the gear - kinda hard to do when you are trying to ride as well.Pushed all the way forward it stoped at neutral.

My Ural was VW powered - it was friction drive....

I have no trouble tapping into neutral. I do it as soon as I sit down at my desk at work.

Quite a few of the bikes I've owned were hard to get into neutral from a stop.I've always adjusted the cable at both ends or adjusted the clutch it's self.If I can't get it to change by messing with those then I just adapt to what ever tech' is reqiured for that particular bike.
My XS selected neutral easily when I first got it,now after new plates it's back to being what most XSs are,bloody awfull.
I can select from a stop by clicking it from first to second then giving it a slight tap an she then drops in sweet.If that won't work,it's time for an oil change.On the XS most clutch action issues after correct adjustment can be solved with an oil change.
