and make sure the shifter lever is not making contact with say the exhaust pipe.....coyote13 said:True, my CB750 prefers a bit of a roll forward to get down into first, I know of a CL350 that needs the same treatment.

doana panik yet..tis not very likely to be in the gearbox proper ,much more likely to be in the mechanisms that go about to rotating the shift drum that stuff can be acces by pullin' side case and clutchsquizzymchaggis said:Awww crap, Maritime. I was afraid someone was going to tell me that, lol. But thanks for the info.
Yeah, I did try rocking it and shifting it without it running and without using the clutch. It still wouldn't go into 1st or shift higher than 4th. But I will try it again just to be extra sure.
I read in the service manual that to work on the transmission you have to split the case on the engine. I stopped reading after that since I figured it was best to rule out clutch problems before taking the step to transmission. How much of a pain in the ass is that? Sounds like I'm going to get to do a major tear down after all, lol.
no prob,mine was that way when I first got it going.squizzymchaggis said:Jooh-Yah, thanks for the info! I haven't had time to mess with anything yet so I will definitely try that first. That would be sweet if thats all it is.
