Hello All
just thought I would say hello! Long time reader, first time poster.
Recently passed my CBT and have just bought a Honda CBF125.
Lovely little bike, thought id best get some practice before i take my test next summer! Going to do the restricted licence as 2 years is long enough for me to save up for a "big boys" bike  |

Think all bikes I've ridden have done that at one point or other.* You're going past neutral, don't forget, so when going down into first give an extra determined kick of the lever. I often go straight from second into neutral when stopping at lights.
If it still doesn't want to go, try letting the clutch out to the biting point and then pull it back in and try to shift again, that usually does it. A blip of throttle can sometimes help too.
*Someone will now likely tell me to stop riding shit bikes.
