jjn56 Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 When my Banshee is running it is hard as hell to almost impossible to get into nuetral. As soon as you shut it off its no problem, pops right in. Whats going on. Also if you start it in Nuetral there is some grinding sounds but not real bad. Don't hear it in any other gear. Shifts through all the gears no prob also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got bearings in my shift shaft, shifting drum and the shift star mod and mine shifts like butter through all gears with the motor off. Not too bad of a constant mesh tranny!

Shifts through all the gears no prob also. you probably need to aling the clutch arm to the arrow on your cases........the grinding might have something to do with that as well cuz if the arm is not aling your bike might be trying to get into gear Edited September 28, 2008 by bada450r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjn56 Posted September 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Is there any way to check this without taking the clutch cover off? If not will I need to drain my coolant and oil or just oil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misssppelllleddd Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 When I'm in neutral, my gears make noise when the clutch isn't pulled. Its pretty normal. Especially on older engines. In order to align the arrows you have to take the clutch cover off. So yeah, you gotta drain the oil and the coolant.

jharader Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 You have a manual? ya may need to adjust the fingers to where it grabs the shiftdrum. easy to do and helps with the neutral issue most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if I pull in the clutch the noise stops also, So if I disconnect the clutch cable and push on the arm untill I feel resistance the arrows should be lined up right, how much off can you be and still be OK, I'm about 1/4" off to the left of the bike looks like.

MikeNick Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 hey where are these arrows at? One is on the arm on top of the left side of the motor that the clutch cable goes into that actuates the pushrod for the clutch, the other is a mark on the case itself. Does anyone have a pic to throw up...If you have a manual it will show you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What section in the manual? I was looking under clutch adjustment 2-15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
