Hi,

so I am an absolute beginner but I don’t think it’s me, I struggle to find Neutral to the point that I sometimes use my hand I also feel like I have clutch drag and wonder if I should replace the clutch with a Mitani  ?

I have changed the gearbox oil with the correct Elf oil and silkoline for engine both were Dark

Make sure your clutch lever is as far away from your fingers when you are holding the bar grip as it can be by turning the perch adjuster anti clockwise then adjust the small allen head adjuster screw that has a 10mm lock nut  on the clutch lever so that there is approx 1mm of free play before it makes contact with the mastercylinder piston. this will seperate the clutch plates as much as possible when you pull the clutch lever in to give the least amount of drag at the clutch plates which will help to engage neutral. NB If when you make that adjustment your clutch lever does not touch against the bar grip then adjust the lever until it just touches the grip or when you crash the piston in the clutch master cylinder may become damaged. With this adjustment the clutch will be at its hardest pressure to pull with one finger.
