finding neutral
Sounds like a silly topic but seriously. I have owned multiple non Harley motorcycles, never had such a hard time finding neutral. Its not a huge issue but sometimes I tap and up click 6 plus times to get my 2012 street glide to find neutral. What is the deal? I feel like I need the finesse of a ballet dancer to get it to go in. I was told this is normal for a new Harley but I'm now going on 3200 miles and it still takes a magic trick to find neutral. Any comments are welcome. Even you smart asses lol.

It takes some practice, but it's really not that hard. When you have down shifted down to First and it seems you can't find neutral, what I do is let the bike go forward some while releasing the clutch. I can feel it in my words, (set in).. Then I can up shift to neutral. Hopefully this makes sense.

Yes, it takes some practice. Mine can still be a bit tricky but I can eventually find it.
For LeFat1 - I need to find neutral when I get to my work. I have to swipe my ID card across a card reader, which is on my left, to get the gate to open. Kinda hard to do (impossible) holding the clutch in. So the OP may have a very valid reason for needing to go to neutral. Just sayin.......
