thall1 Posted 11 hours ago Report Share Posted 11 hours ago So casings split… nothing obvious that’s broken or damaged. Using an Allen wrench on the gear change drum on the clutch side I can get 1st, neutral and 2nd… and there it stops? always had a problem when going 2nd-3rd it felt like 2nd hadn’t fully disengaged but cleared if I went back to 2nd the up into 3rd… lovely & clean inside.. no debris or any sort to be found which in some respects is very good but was hopping to see something obvious and maybe something sat in the bottom of the casing! any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

lineaway Posted 11 hours ago Report Share Posted 11 hours ago Did you have a shift shaft problem first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted 11 hours ago Report Share Posted 11 hours ago You do know that you have to spin the shafts to get them to shift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thall1 Posted 11 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 11 hours ago Yes, I did snap the paw from the gear selector shaft. I welded it back together, making sure it was exactly the same position from when it snapped, also made a new paw slide pin as mine had quite a bit of wear, you could move the lever quite a few degrees before it actually started to turn the gear cam. Gear change was brilliant after… I could select every gear with ease, even found neutral with the engine running! ( I can’t upload a photo atm… file to big-don’t know why?… perhaps I’ve exceeded my allowance?) everything was great until the bike went down on its left side onto rocks. After that I had a lever that didn’t really do anything but unlike when I snapped the paw assembly off the shaft and the shaft would just move excessively up or down as far as the bash plate, it didn’t seem to have full movement… after quite a few tries I got 2nd and left it there…. At first I assumed I’d snapped the shaft again or something related to it …There were no strange noises or anything to suspect gears were eating themselves.. and no signs of that now it’s apart… my son rode the bike for a while and he too couldn’t find anything bar 2nd. He got neutral a few times. and yes I’m spinning the shafts while trying to change gear using the indent cam. im at a loss now!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thall1 Posted 10 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 10 hours ago Just to add… the gear selector drum is virtually unmarked… and the pin the locates it in relation the the ident cam is also unmarked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago The shift shaft would break loose at the weld. You did check that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
