[QUOTE="wfooshee, post: 1465321, member: 6354"] That detent spring comes to mind for me, too. if it's a bit weak, the shift drum can maybe roll out of neutral if it takes a jostle. That neutral notch is WAY smaller than the notches between gears! You'll need to remove the clutch basket to really see it, which brings its own set of problems with reinstalling the basket correctly, as it drives one of the balancers which you do NOT want to get out of time, and it has to line up with dogs at the back of the basket, on a sprocket that drive the oil pump.
