I've sold these reproduction neutral switches for a while now. I'm looking to get some feedback on them. General feedback is welcome, but mainly interested to know if you've experienced any cracks at the screw mounts and if the switch is making it harder to shift by putting too much pressure on the drum. Or any leaks. I haven't gotten a single complaint or any returns other than one guy that said it was harder to shift.

Curious. My RD250 is hard to shift after a full motor rebuild and I do not
know why. Picked the bike up as a barn find. So I do not know how it shifted
before the rebuild.
What is the possibility that the plastic switch plate is causing it?
It is also difficult to engage neutral with the engine running. Easier
when cold, gets harder when fully warm.
Thanks John.
zero on the plate causing it. your clutch ig probably just dragging & needs attention
Ove never had an issue w the N switches from EC :)
Was my thought too on the plate not being the issue.
Clutch engagement seems to feel fine to me. It will kick
start in gear with the clutch pulled.
The problem is liveable, just rather annoying.
Cheers, Jeff
