I now know the reason why my 'false neutrals' were happening. When I took it in for its first service the mechanic told me that the chain had become loose which was causing the problem. Falling back in love with riding. It was quite scary before.

I recently bought a YBR125 and after initially loving it, I am now sick to death of it. I am now seriously on the verge of selling it because of these false neutrals. There seems to be no logic to it. Some journeys it doesn't stick at all. Other journeys it can stick repeatedly. One 7 mile journey I had it up to 15 times. When riding In central London with a white van stuck up your arse and you're in the middle of 4 lanes of traffic, where you can't pull over or put hazard lights on it is a total nightmare. I have tried with soft shoes and motorbike boots and it doesn't seem to matter how hard you push up, it just will not pass through neutral into second. I have my first service next Monday and my confidence is now so shot on the bike I am worried about the ride to the dealership. If this is a feature of bike riding, I'm going to get an X-max or car. Sick of it.
