sometimes you gotta blip the throttle a little and let the clutch bite a tiny tiny amount and it slots straight in , bit of a normal trait with the 30 (youll get the hang of it , it will become second nature )

Hi.
It's a trait of the NC, blip the throttle up to around 4-5k and it will slot straight in.

Check your chain tension too. I've found in the past a slack chain can cause neutral selection problems.
Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.

Try snicking into neutral whilst still rolling before coming to a stop.
From 2nd or 1st gear.
