stallýng ýn neutral

ok thýs one is gývýng me a headache..whenever ý change down into neutral the býke has a tendency to mýsfýre and stall.. generally when ým comýng to a stop ýn traffic. i thýnk ýt may be a clutch issue because it also seems to do the same when i put ýt ýnto fýrst gear to take off... just a chokýng mýsfýre then it stalls...thanks guys..ýnterested on your thoughts..

clutch switch, neutral switch, or a bad connection somewhere between these switches and the cdi unit.

Try to adjust the idle mixture screw [hidden under the front side of the carb]. Usually a few turns out works fine. Try the bike after every turn. Don't turn it out more than 8 turns otherwise you'll hardly get it back in again. That is if you find it.
