I beg to differ in my 39 years of riding, sluggo, but that's what makes the world go round - differences of opinions, even allowing for years of experience on both our parts. Grin

The MVA book says to always leave it in gear when stopped, but I've always heard that it's bad for the transmission. I suppose its down to saftey or wear, riders choice!

Also, I've had a similar problem with an 01 with 130miles on it. Only I couldn't get mine in any gear.

So far it seems to work better with no hangups in neutral. If your clutch cable is adjusted right then try moving the shifter arm, it worked for me.
