My speedometer quit working at 20 miles and the odometer followed at 30 miles, but at what I estimated to be 50 miles l changed the oil to conventional Valvoline 10w-40 4 stroke motorcycle oil, because I was not able to find neutral at all with the engine running and I figured it couldn't hurt to try.

The only way I could get it into neutral was with the engine off. I was getting false neutral indications too, which concerned me. I tried the light tap down from second. I tried everything. The oil change seems to have done the trick. I can actually find neutral relatively easily now. If I could get a working speedometer and odometer, I would be really satisfied with this bike.
