Anyone else ever had their transmission go into neutral when shifting from 5th to 6th??

its happened a few times lately on mine...


on a different note, today being 94*F my bike didnt seem to hesitate as much under hard acceleration... what a crap ultimatum hahaha cooler nicer weather = flat spot 4-5K, steamy hot = great acceleration....

During the three years I have owned this mc, I have never shifted into a false neutral between 5th and 6th.  Now after reading this post I have hit that thing twice; both times happening this past weekend.  Bad mojo...bad mojo.
