My main concern is the bike being so jerky when I shift into 1st from neutral (and dying on me), and not being able to find neutral at a stop like in my garage or parking lot when I need to. I saw people had some success switching to synthetic oil but didnt want to keep buying gallons of oil with no idea what the problem is.
Did this happen before your video adventure or did it start after? I couldn't hear the engine over the music, but it seemed you had some difficulty navigating the dirt portion.
