Difficult to engage reverse on my 2012 RT

[palover]

Recently my 2012 RT, with 1,000 miles, is difficult to engage in reverse. Only after I press both the 'R" and the '-' switches extremely hard will the reverse engage. When the bike was new, I just seem to easily press both switches simultaneously and bingo 'Reverse'. Any ideas as to what seems to be wrong?

Did this just start or did it occur soon after your 600 mile service

Yes, but not immediately. It seem to have started after around 100 miles after the 1st service.

I'd report it to your dealer. It could be a simple adjustment of the reverse actuator, or it could be an electrical problem of some sort, IMO.

If you have standard transmission could be dirt, etc in the clutch line. Ni was having similar problem only could not easily get in 1st gear or neutral. When dealer looked at it there was particles, etc in clutch line so they drained it, flushed it and replaced fluid. Shifts really great now.
