We are up in Maggie Valley this week and it’s been cold early mornings and it’s a little difficult to find neutral. Is something out of adjustment or do I need to say fluid to another brand . Just had 10000 Mille service done a couple months ago.Thanks in advance.

 

I have the same problem w/my 2019
Planning on changing the fluid, less the 3k miles

 

If finding neutral is only hard when it is cold and better once everything warms up, should be no issue.

Might want to check the fluid level in your primary as it might be too high and allowing your clutch plates to drag a bit.

 

Mine seems to be easier to find when I switched to Redline products instead of using same oil in all 3 holes. Primary and tranny.

 

Clutch pak done correctly, cable/lever adjustment done correctly? Fluids have been argued repeatedly but my preference has always been Spectro Heavy Duty Platinum 6-speed(full synthetic). The older 5 speeds I ran Spectro.

 

Thanks for all the info. No problem after warms up. Headed home We’d AM. Will check it when I get home.

 

Adjust the clutch. This is the issue in many cases of not being able to find neutral.

Check oil level is correct and not low in the transmission, or too high in the primary.

For fear of igniting an oil debate may I just say that Redline V-Twin with shockproof has always worked very well in my '09 Fatboy after changing from another brand. Very smooth changes, greatly reduces 1st gear clunk, and finding neutral is never an issue.

 

Redline MTL in the Primary.

Redline Shockproof Heavy in the Gearbox

Works for me.

 

 

If it's ok after warm up, you're fine. When it's cold, the plates will tend to stick, and cause drag, which makes finding neutral a PITA. That said, I have found that Redline V-Twin Primary fluid is less prone to that phenomenon, so you might want to look into that.

Cheers!
