advise for buying a bike

i have always wanted a motorcycle and i finally found one that is in my price range. it is a 1996 yamaha virago and it has almost 23,000 miles. everything seems to be fine but when i went to check it out i figured out that when the engine is on and the bike is stopped you can not get the bike in neutral. the bike goes into neutral but in order for that to happen you have to slip in in as you are approaching the stop. i just want to know if that is a serious problem or just a minor adjustment.
let me know,
thanks
