Hi there.


Not an uncommon problem! Usually happens at the most inconvenient times, like when I pull into the gas station & the guy's standing there waiting to fill me up. Best way is to leave it in gear - you should do that anyway, if you're parked on a hill - then when you want to start, put the side stand up, pull in the clutch, & it'll start right up. Into first gear & away you go. :2tup:

If I'm in no hurry, I kick it down a gear, while letting the clutch out partially, & keep doing this until it eventually drops into first, then click it up into neutral. You can see as it goes into first, as the neutral light will flash briefly.
