bike has a hard time going into Neutral.
I was riding my bike in my driveway, and after a while i was having a hard time getting it in Neutral. After initially riding it for a few minutes, it would go into Neutral no problem. When i park it in the garage, i like to keep in that gear, but it seems to be chore to get it there. Anyone know why this is?

Changed mine last weekend. I adjusted the clutch also (long story.... ) anyway, manual says to adjust the clutch at room temp. which should be considered to be about 72deg F. Which means just before riding, or several hours after.
Streetbob, I would change out the tranny fluid to either Redline HD shockproof, or Mobil-1 75/140. I run Redline and finding neutral after bike is hot is no problem. Shifts pretty smooth.

riding in the driveway? is your drive way like ten miles long? If you give her a good runn the tranny should come back to normal by itself. Is it new? sometimes they go in nuetral real easy sometimes not,it's a harley! Do what those guys said too they are not wrong...not 1 of them! LOL enjoy your info overload!? your about to get 1000 different opinions!
