Having had the 748 Bip for almost 2 weeks finally got spare time to take it out today - when not in traffic it is lovely ( doesnt seem to like going slowly much, which wont be good for my license ! ).
Anyway... have read a few other posts on here and wanted some clarification.
It doesnt seem to want to go into Neutral at all, no matter how much left foot fumbling I do while stationary or coming up to junctions etc...
It goes into 1st fine, and up and down the other gears with no problems once moving, when stopped the N light did come on, but the bike was still in gear - did manage to get it into neutral more by luck than judgement once I got home, but had to resort to holding the clutch in in 1st at the lights.
So....
Is this likely to be anything major up with the gearbox ( bike is under 3 months warranty, but the dealer isnt local so dont want to be without it for ages if its something reasonably cheap I can get sorted by my local shop ) or more likely to be an adjustment problem - I have got the clutch lever on the closest to the bars setting as I find it more comfortable, so would changing it help, or should I look at having the clutch bled ?
Did also notice the clutch was a bit all or nothing when pulling away and trying to slip it.
Sorry if this has been covered, but I'm confused why it would go into all the other gears fine, but not be finding neutral properly, and why changing the span adjuster would effect this - the light does come on fine when its actually in neutral - do the Italians just make neutral really hard to find as a quirk ?
Any help or advice appreciated
Mike
p.s. every time I did stop somewhere, someone came up to me to talk about the bike, which was quite nice - shame it was middle aged blokes and not pneumatic young females though...
