Problem with neutral

[Craig B]

I installed a lock up and billet basket over the weekend. While I had the cover off I installed the Mull shift star and detent bearing. Bike runs like a raped ape, but can't find neutral to save it's life. What could be wrong??

You bought a banshee. Some people have good luck and hit neutral every time. I've never seen it in person.

I can usually get it coming to a stop. But at a dead stop it's not happening

Well it was decent before I did the clutch and shift star. The only time I can get neutral is when it's shut off.

Did you go from an oem shift star to the modded?

Yup.

I've always figured neutral is to be found on a Banshee while not running for kick start purposes only.

if you changed nothing but the basket,lockup,star and arm then you would think it has to be something associated with those parts. I haven't looked close but maybe the star has different geometry or different ramps into neutral position ? maybe theres something different about the arm. whats do you meen by hard to find neutral ? is the plates dragging or the star just rolls past the neutral slot ?

I have to find neutral with my hand. I can never find it with my foot.

Once you cut the star that's about it. It slips right past that notch

I can get neutral every time on my bike, sitting still or rolling.

So what you saying is with the modified star it's going from 1st to 2nd everytime? Would it be better to go back to the stock star? There are a few things in the aftermarket that help with shifting, like modified shift shaft, shift pro [lighter spring] . Would any of these help hitting neutral easier ???

I agree, it's definitely one of the thing I just messed with. I don't think it's the clutch or basket. I will be looking @ this shift star and detent bearing first. I think it's just going right pass neutral.

Make sure your eccentric screw is adjusted properly. That is the main reason people have a hard time finding neutral of shifting under load imo.

That^. The Mull has different geometry. It takes a slight adjustment to get it working like butter.

Thanks, I am going to look into adjusting this.
