Guest Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Hey guys, lately its been really hard to get into Neutral.Is this due to lack of grease or lubrication if so where can I top it up?Thanks Quote
Guest Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 you cant top it up, the clutch sits in the same oil as the engine, so i would check your level, and top up if necessary, otherwise, undo the front sprocket cover and give everything a clean, theres been posts on here about SV's having problems with gear change linkages due to road salt and other grime, plus you get a build up of muck from the sprocket with the chain oil etc...

Guest Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 Thanks a lot Walney I will clean and re grease the sprocket and top up the oil on saturday Ill let you know how I get on Quote
Guest Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 From my experience most bikes get that issue quickly, when used. I spray ACF50 on all mechanical components (well on electronics too, almost everywhere, but that's not your question). It really helps a lot! All gears shift much smoother and neutral pops in nicely again. When someone tells you "lubricate it" it will help too. However i noticed that (the expensive, yes) ACF50 does a much better job than any lubricant i've had (it's more than just a lubricant). Actually i've just bought a litre bottle with atomizer - so much i love it!You may want to give it a try. Quote
