I cant tell you a fix or what is wrong. But I can tell you mine also hates neutral. What I do is put a slight bit of pressure on the shifter and roll the bike forward, she'll pop right in then

I find it easier to put the bike in second and just very very slightly tap down into neutral...

I dont have an issue, but I installed the shift kit in my 01.. however, previous to that, it was just a matter with being more of a gentle touch to po it in.

however, I never put the bike in neutral at stop signs or at red lights... if I need to scoot to avoid something, I'm in gear.

neutral is NOT the place to be unless you are out of traffic.

Idle is too high, you need an oil change, or your clutch needs adjusted. Mine has issues if it idles above 1200 RPM.

It's about being aware. Sure stretch your back some or make sure wallet still in pocket or whatever, but always be aware of what's going on around you(and behind lol)
