I just discovered that it seems I'm not getting oil to the top end of my engine. Thinking oil pump, but what else could it be? I oil tube and banjo's are clear. New oil filter, gasket etc.

Can anyone tell me exactly what causes the dreaded can't find neutral issue? I installed new clutch discs, wire wheeled the plates, installed new shifter springs, new Mike's xs bearing and the clutch doesn't disengage correctly and can't find neutral(will shift directly to 2nd or down to first)...

So the issue seems to have cleared itself, bike's runnin great, no flooding. Don't know what did it. I tried the petcock off, remove floatbowl plug, open petcock and got nothing but clean fuel on either carb. Thanks for the suggestions. You guys are truly "Guru's".
