Is it possible to go from 2nd to neutral on a motorcycle?

Why is my Honda TRX 350 es not shifting?
When I repaired my friends Honda TRX 350 ES Rancher, it was a broken leveling sensor located at the base of the engine in the front. It was broken in half and so it was not sending a signal to the ECU. So the ECU wouldn’t let the electric shift operate. When I replaced the leveling sensor, the electric shift worked great.
