Took the new TriGlide out for a short ride today and had a heck of a time to get it into neutral, with the engine running. Shut it off and it goes right in. Any tips, or is it a new trike thing? Thanks for any help.

When we're riding, our trannys are easy to shift because when we first pull the clutch lever in to shift there is an immediate speed change in
To find neutral or get the tranny to shift easier, we have to mismatch the speed of the drive and driven clutch plates. To do that put a little bit of pressure on the shift lever and pull in the clutch lever, quickly blip the throttle and the shifter will slip easily into neutral or the next gear. This is a symptom of riding a bike with a wet clutch. I'll bet Ducati riders rarely have trouble finding neutral because they have a dry clutch.
