  • clutch isnt engaging!!

    Last weekend I my chain came off and broke the clutch pushrod. I bought a new one and a new seal that the pushrod goes through and installed them when I installed my new chain and sprockets. Now when I put it in gear and pull the clutch in its as though the clutch isnt engaging. I adjusted the clutch the way Jimmy says to do in the How-To section, but no help. The clutch feels right, butdoesnt seem to engage when its in gear!! Any suggestions anybody????

          you sure you got the right pushrod? It doesnt do a lot - maybe the actuator got damaged at the same time?

              I have had this problem in the past. What I did was pull the clutch cable back off and reinstall completely for a second time. Really weird, but it worked. I give you high appraise to the bike. The red and black color scheme is great. When I'm done with my bike I have something you may want to try. I will post pics and make sure I explain it. It makes a hell of a difference.
              Some people grow big and tall and some stay the same... My 600 grew 527cc's by high school and stayed the same size. He use to get bullied by a few people:

              Jigzer and Shrad were brothers
              Charlie Brown Rodjers also known as CBR
              Kall Asaki from Japan

              I'm not a racer but at a stop light Jigzer pulled up and so did Shrad. They reved their engines....
              The light changes to green light so we ride...
              Then they read my license plate and it says
              " KATchup "

                Well after talking to Jimmy and going back through everything I done it seems the clutch cable is stretched out. I finally got it adjusted out to where it works now, but i'm ordering a new one from BraadaJim. Can't say enough about the help Jimmy give and for him to take time to call me and help me out I have the upmost respect for him!!

                Thanks DDMGraphix, if you dont mind, PM me what you was talking about I might want to try.
