I went to Bel-Ray 85W-140 on the 1k service and neutral is much easier to find now. Clunking during shifting is greatly reduced as well. Redline Shock Proof Heavy (SPH) is also thought of highly around the forum.

If you are using the heel shifter, it is common to have neutral be a pain in the ***. Try moving the toe shifter up so you can use it until your tranny gets broken in. It's easier to find neutral with your toe.

Had the very same issue on my 2011 FLHTK. It was suggest to me on this forum that until I do the first adjustment and change out the oil (I used RedLine) to place the arch of my foot/boot over the pivot of the heel/toe shifter and gently go from 1st to Neutral or 2nd to neutral by putting slight pressure onto the front or rear lever. It works and then when I did that fluid change and clutch adjustment, all has been perfect ever since.
