Hard to shift

[nixlevel]

I'am having problems getting the bike to shift from 1st to N when the bike is running when the motor is off it works fine I don't have any problems shiftting when ridding only when at stop light trying to get back to Neutral it's like the shifter is stuck i tried rocking the bike back and forth also my clutch lever feels mushy i tried bleeding it but the fluid doesn't move very much please HELP

You've got a '03 right?
When was the clutch hose last replaced? Recommended replacement interval is every 4 years.
Have you bled out all of the old fluid? Should be showing clear DOT4 at both ends of the hose.

Agree ... hose, slave or master cylinder seals ageing or could even just need a good flush through with clean fluid.

Yes 03 fluid looks drake coming out but put fresh dot4 in the master cylinder rubber boot looks worn

I never replaced the hose

Flash the clutch...it is easier to go from 2nd to N than 1st to N...feather the clutch and feel it...aside from it not popping into N you are the guy that has to deal with you left hand and left foot
