Harry Innes Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 Hi, can anyone help please? I have a 1998 xj600 with 14400 miles on the clock. It takes 4 or 5 attempts to find neutral when shifting down at traffic lights etc
Moderator YamaHead Posted May 11, 2006 Moderator Posted May 11, 2006 Sounds like a symptom for a possible Bent Shift Fork in the gearbox.
ANDYROSE Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Scott has hit one possibilty on the head, but hopefully it isn't that bad. Are you selecting neutral while still rolling or at a standstill? If it's the latter, they are all prior to being tricky I believe. If it's the former getting into neutral while still moving at a reasonable pace. If it isn't easy to find neutral even when moving I wonder if your clutch is dragging a bit, possibly due to wear, being out of adjustment or the wrong oil? You could try this forum for a bit more help... [url=http://www.bikersoracle.com/yamahadiversion/forum/url] Andy
