Ok, let's be honest here... how often do y'all catch neutral accidentally? For me, for whatever reason it's been happening a lot more over the past couple of weeks. Always when I'm accelerating aggressively and it's terribly embarrassing to rev bomb that first shift when you're trying to blast off a light. I'm wondering if I should try tweaking my shifter positioning to get better engagement when I'm brain-farting executing a solid upshift. I shift nearly 100% of the time using the shift-assist. I suspect that does create some less than ideal shifting habits (but it's just soo fun!!!)
Oddly, over the past couple of weeks, on deceleration, I've had it slip out of 2nd into neutral all by itself a couple of times. I suspect it's the same cause (me not fully actuating the shift lever on the 3-2 downshift). It's possible also that I'm brushing the top of the shifter with my foot without realizing it, but I don't think I was at those times. Not being intimately familiar with the inner workings of a motorcycle transmission, is that a thing? You can be in gear, but not fully "seated", leaving it more likely to "pop out" of gear? Wondering if I should focus more on my shift effort, or if I should start being concerned there is an issue with the transmission developing.
