Default rolls with the cluth pulled in

I just got my dvx 400 back from the dealer today, i took it in to have the clutch checked out, and they adjusted it to the setting it was supposed to be... now when i have the clutch pulled in, i shift into first gear, it takes off rolling on me. AND it is really hard to shift into reverse.... and then, i cant get it back into neutral while the engine is running.. but when i turn it off... it goes right into neutral.. what is wrong here guys???


all help appreciated!

it sounds like the adjustment isnt right

at what point does the clutch disengage as you pull in the clutch?

does it do it once the bike warms up?

other things that can affect this are oil thickness/temperature and engine rpm

start by moving your clutch adjuster out 1, 2 or 3 turns ,,,,,and see if there is any difference

what is it doing when you adjusted it....?


What weight oil do you run?

Do you store your bike in a heated garage,,,,or in a cold garage?


Does it get better when the bike warms up?

It is just your adjustment, that is usually a dead give away when they have trouble going into reverse or neutral.
