Motorcycle Repair: 2007 KX450F, clutch lever, oil level


Question
I have a problem with my bike hitting neutral sometimes when i am shifting up, and down. What do you think could help with this?

Answer
This is a common problem with most motorcycles as neutral is between first and second gear.You need to check a couple of things.This is commonly caused by the clutch dragging.Adjust the clutch so you have about 1/4 inch free play in the clutch lever before the cable starts to disengage the clutch (any tension )Also check and make sure the oil level is correct and it is the correct type and brand for your bike.
NEVER use any brand of oil other than recommended.As this is a newer bike if the problem persist visit your dealer and also check for any recalls regarding this matter.

Be safe  Jerry
