Default RE: Neutral Problems

my old sporty has that same problem. with the engine off, i can shift into 1st and back into neutral just fine
but with the engine runnin, you put her in first and you gotta get rollin before you can get her
back into neutral. i usualy get her into neutral before coming to a stop, but when i cant, the clutch heats up and starts becoming hard to disengage. wet clutch setup , old bike, unknown mileage. i put bout 10,000 on her this year.
