I only have an issue finding neutral when the bike is warmed up and running. If its cold and running, it shifts to neutral. If its warm and I shut it off, it shifts into neutral easily.
The bike doesn't creep, and it moves freely backwards while in gear with the clutch pulled.
200-ish for a clutch pack isn't as bad as I expected. Energy one has options for an extra plate and a 15% stronger spring diaphragm. Are these worth the extra cash?
