The Fundamental issue he is having is The Clutch.


Sorry - OP's problem of not finding neutral had absolutely nothing to do with the clutch.

Stop trying to pat yourself on the back - you've solved nothing here.

Sorry to say, but we see another example of hillsy's Arrogant Attitude that he is,..."the Burning Bush of the Tech Board".....and ONLY HE can have correct Solutions. :roll:

Knowing the Definitions of the words will help clear up this confusion.

The "Problem" that mauricedonini said he was having was clearly stated by the OP;

Starting a couple of days ago the bike is no longer able to roll.


The possible SOURCES of "the Problem" he said he was having were;
1. Brakes,..........but was tested for ruled out

2. Clutch Hydraulic System,..........but that was fixed and ruled out

3. Clutch.....as he stated here;

..... possibly clutch, transmission or final drive.
4. Gears and shifting.

Fixing either one of Item #3 or Item #4 Of THE SOURCES of "the Problem" would result in... Fixing,."the Problem" :wink: (the bike could roll again... see above correct definition of "the Problem")

Glad we could clarify what has happened. Hope that hillsy won't continue to Drag Down yet ANOTHER Tech Thread with is Arrogant Attitude. :uhh:

Hi

Here’s today’s update

Got the clutch plates out last night. They were all stuck together. Spent Saturday night cleaning them up - hopefully I was the only one cleaning clutch plates on a Saturday night 😀.

The plates spent the night in oil.

Put the plates back in, however the rains came so I am done for the day.

Thanks for the help

Maurice

Thanks for letting us know what you found.
I can't seem to win the lottery. I think I have used up all of my good luck riding motorcycles.

Yessir,..I second what Herb posted. One step closer to Riding that Bad Boy of yours.

Did you check to see how well it rolls when you pull in the Clutch when In Gear? This will help tell you how well the Bleeding went.
