If you mean the bike seems like it goes into neutral when you let off the throttle then it's probably the sprag clutch (oneway bearing) is faulty ..
06 foreman 500 acts like it kicks out of gear on down hills

it's not in the clutch it has something to do with the jetting i went to a 165 jet like a buddy said to try and it is not near as bad he said it may be that i just have to get the a/f screw set better for the new jetting
The problem that you described in your first post cannot have anything to do with your jetting. The one way bearing that honda mechanic is talking about is what gives you engine braking if it is messed up it will do exactly what you are describing.
how hard is that bearing to change and does the motor have to be removed to do it .
