"False Neutral"

[tanner 222]

lately when ive been riding on the track whenever i try to shift with and without the clutch it seems to slip into false neutral a lot. it only happens when i run it hard and only happens around the middle - end of the race. i always put around 50-80mL more oil than recommended in the tranny but is it possible its getting too hot or is something internally broke? anyone have this problem before or anyone know whats going on ? thanks

Put a full 2 quarts in per change. half a quart in the motor and the rest in the tank.

so your saying its just over heating ?

[quad59]

Its the cheapest start. I have always done a two quart change. I have never had tranny wine or any other issues. If that doesnt work you gotta tear it down and inspect your shift pin location for cracks. Assuming that none of this is rider error. Try raising or lowering the shifter to get a better stab at it.

The tranny and motor use the same oil on these. It is NOT seperate!

No its not seperate..but if you drain it and then fill only the tank it takes that much longer for the oil to get pumped from the tank to the motor. Then you will have a lag in the time that it gets to the pick ups in the bottom end,thru the filter and into the top end. Every little bit helps in the longevity of your engine. If you are going to let it sit for a awhile after filling you can put it just in the tank because over time the oil will gravity feed in to the motor.
