Default Bayou 300 1999 won't go into neutral

If I rock and rock sometimes it will go into neutral. Won't start without neutral. Runs fine when started. This morning I rocked till I couldn't rock/roll any more, still wouldn't go to neutral (green light). Left foot gear shift seems to be working fine, definitely does once I get it going. Any help/ideas greatly appreciated. Thank you.

No idea on the atvs, I usually put my bike in neutral before I shut it off, but rocking should reload the forks to switch to neutral. Maybe its not in first gear and is not getting enough rotation to reposition the forks. Dunno if you have a switch on the clutch but typically you should be able to start it with the clutch in regardless of the gear. Might be another workaround. Or pull in the clutch and trip the neutral switch and get it running so you can shift it back.
