-I cant find neutral when the bike is warmed up. Not a huge deal as it teaches me to stay in 1st at a light, but still, I can never get her into neutral. Sometimes, I cant even shift up from 1st to N/2 while stopped...only when moving. Is this normal for a B4?

mine does the same, however since my first moped (nsr50) did that same thing i always put it in neutral before i stopped and i guess i still do that

I find it easier to get into neutral from 2nd gear... maybe you should give it a try

you can adjust your shift linkage to but i have the same problem mainly its due to the gears come with a slight undercut from the factory . I have to lightly move it when i need it to be in neutral

Rev it a bit and then it will go into neutral. Adjusting your clutch will help too.

OK...I got some new pads for the rear....I checked the manual how to change pads..it looks too easy to be true. NO tools required? Is that right?

Knowing me I'm gonna screw something up....any tips?

After you stick the new pads in, be sure to hit the brakes a couple of times BEFORE you go for a ride to put the pistons back in place.

You'lll need a 14mm spanner and a pair of pliers i think.

Just as a FYI, you can still get the stock suzuki air filter from the dealer. I went in today looking for one and they had it in stock. I almost couldn't believe it. It must be common to other bikes.

Did you buy one? Do they have any more? How much was it?

interfuse · « **Reply #144 on:** May 12, 2007, 07:34:55 PM »

Yes I bought it. I'm not sure if they had anymore. I got it from Cycleworld West (cycleworld.ca), thier number is 416-233-5501. The part number 1378134c10. Price is 16.90 plus tax. It comes pre-oiled so all you have to do is pop it in...
