[Ducati] Finding Neutral

[Barrie O'Shea]

My ST2 had the same problem - really hard to find neutral when it was  
new. The dealer told me it would improve with mileage - it didn't.  
When I replaced the remains of the original clutch lever (don't ask),  
I bought the adjustable levers that were fitted to the ST4. I was then  
able to find a sweet spot that allowed me to find neutral much more  
reliably. Can't explain why that should be, or why Ducati can't make a  
gearbox that has an easy neutral.

Nor can I explain why I have to replace the cam belts every 2 years,  
when my 2007 Peugeot V6 diesel has a 110,000 mile cam belt replacement  
interval - but lets not start that thread again. BTW, you can ride for  
several days with half a clutch lever if you have no other way of  
getting home. Not much fun in the city though.
