Title: In Neutral... between 2nd and 3rd WTF???
Post by: TragicImage on May 05, 2006, 07:53:20 PM
so, on my way to work, and home from work today, I found a new "neutral" on my bike.  It exsists between 2nd and 3rd.


Please, tell me.... what is wrong.

False neutral.. Sounds like a case of LLT, or Lazy Left Toe. It happens when the transmission disengages, but fails to reengage. It's got something to do with the transmission dogs, but I don't remember exactly what. Just give it a bit more oomph next time.

Nothing wrong, technically. One pair of gears must be disengaged completely before the second begins to engage. If the shifting forks remain in exactly that position, no  gear pair is engaged and you have false neutral.
