you will be turning it off to find neutral at those settings.

I think I have mine set at about 1/8"-1/4". Basically, it's as little as possible without the clutch slipping under hard acceleration. Even my RX3's don't like to find neutral when hot and running at a stop. Q slips right in no problem. I'm just hoping it cleans up with miles.

I suspect I get a lot of practice as I can feel it through my foot, but you inevitably get good at something if you spend an hour a day at it...
I'll be interested to see what it's like when summer gets to full bore and I'm in traffic. Even my Ninja's buttery smooth shifting starts to get lumpy in the heat. |

Interesting, I've never needed to adjust my clutch yet so I guess mine must be disengaging properly for now. I will keep that in mind if neutral becomes elusive.

I also had trouble finding neutral on the Hawk. Finally I tightened the clutch cable to the point of zero free play and neutral selection is greatly improved. My guess is that the collection of chinese parts don't interact as they should and the clutch lever on the engine case is not being rotated quite enough, or slightly less than the ideal amount. "Over Tightening" the clutch cable seems to cure this issue. Of course be aware that clutch slippage should be avoided!!!

my original battery died a horrible death but I was still able to kick over the tt250 no problem with it half choked - the headlight flashed with the rpm at idle, but it ran fine. new battery being installed this week.

So far, no problem with the stock battery but I've had it on a trickler all Winter. Hopefully there will be no horrible death any time soon.

mine dried out sitting for 3 months. I tried topping it off and putting on the charger over night but it cooked out a lot of the water. I may give it another try but in the mean time I picked up a sealed glass mat battery to use instead.

Fired my TT up yesterday. It was bogging when giving higher throttle and died whenever I tried to take it off half choke. Rode it to gas station and put new gas in it and drained the old gas out of the float bowl. I Might try adding some sea foam directly to the bowl if problem persists. Hopefully it was just bad gas but I have doubts. Bike would only run with choke on even after it was warmed up but the temperature was only barely above freezing. It supposed to be nicer tomorrow so hopefully I can get her going. She's parked in a heated garage now so hopefully she will run without the choke tomorrow. She ran so wonderfully before I parked her for the winter.
