Hey guys so i have a 1998 superchicken and am having isues getting the thing to move. clutch workers perfectly and bike idols fine but when you put in in gear and let out the clutch you can hear the internal gears just grind/spin. suggestions please? so far have taken off the casings and cant see anything wrong. im guessing ill have to drop the engine and go from there? thanks!

 

No need to drop the motor quite yet. You do need to pull off the clutch cover and see what is going on in there though......

 

Yeah, have a look behind the clutch assembly at the shift drum first. Make sure the lever is operating it as it should. You should inspect the clutch assembly also.

If this is all ok you may have to look inside.

 

hey thanks gyus will check it out tonight if it doesnt rain, its cold up here still! lever seems to be a-okay i will inspect the drum
