Thanks Pete Pete, you want to lube the pivot shaft for the shifter that was mentioned up above. Its the shaft that comes off the center of the shifter and goes through the bracket down by the foot board. I usually just give mine a squirt or two with some spray lube that has Teflon or something similar. Done right, I suppose I should take it apart and grease the shaft and inside of the housing it passes through, but the spray lube seems to work fine. When that shaft dries up and needs lubed, it'll cause the shifter to bind and makes hitting neutral difficult.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #527446 Tug (User) ride free. live free. or die tryin Platinum Boarder Posts: 4834 Re:Where's Neutral? 9 Months, 2 Weeks ago   SKWEARpeg wrote: wpeteman wrote: Where and with what kind of lube?

What the hell is jack shaft fluid??? Is that anything like blinker fluid? I changed mine last week... I thought the transmission and engine oil were the same. Did he mean the transfer case? Man, I'm screwed. I've never changed my blinker fluid or replaced my muffler bearings. I need to unload this bike quick before something blows up P.S. Roadstar for sale. Cheap.

So the transfer case fluid is what I was talking about.   Logged     [img size=150][/img]RIDE DS:219 MASSILLON OHIOhttp://banners.wunderground.com/weathersticker/miniWeather2_both_cond/language/www/US/OH/M   The administrator has disabled public write access.
