Default Hangs up in 3rd
Been working on a new problem, wants to intermittently hang in 3rd.

I adj the clutch to were it engages at 1/2 hand lever and it shifted much better but wanted to slip under full power. guess Im needing a new clutch.
I went from Belray Pri fluid to ATF but no change.
Had my Indy look at it and it's back to hanging in 3rd.

Mine does the same crap... false neutrals, pull in the clutch, blip the throttle, and she'll go back into gear... between 3rd and 4th when shifting. I shortened up the shift link and it got better, but it's still there. I may shorten it up one more turn.

I believe I have adjusted all I can get out of it this past year. Just time for a race clutch. You may be due for a new one too.
