Albertaborn Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Hello new to the forum. Recently rebuilt my first banshee ( have rebuilt at least 20 plus machines over last 20 yrs ie dirt bike trans, four strokes plus trans etc) and am having trouble bench shifting it. What happened was while riding trans locked up. Upon disassembly found after market clutch basket rear plate came loose and piled up everything on the clutch side. Now all new clutch side and re installed drum and forks ( number 2 on back left and number ones on front shaft and right rear) put star in neutral drop in trans into case. In neutral seem to not disengage between the clutch main shaft and main out put shaft which I would thought in neutral both shaft shoukd be independent l. Also in any gear seem like can only get a full rotation on either shaft before it binds. Put top case on to try and see if it would help but does not. Quad is new to me but rode it for 2 weeks before trans locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albertaborn Posted January 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 I should add, I just took it apart again and every thing is good in the sense that with only the drum, forks, transmission shafts and gears I can cycle the gears by turning the star gear and turning the clutch shaft but as soon as I put the spring and roller for the star gear it seems to hold the drum just outside the sweet spot.

Albertaborn Posted January 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 I've got it closed up again. Seems that in a way if I leave the spring and roller for the star gear I can manually turn the drum and manually turn either shaft and shift though all the gear and keep the assembly rolling without bind but once I position the star gear where the detent would be it starts to bind. Shift forks are not bend. Drum is clean and mitered trails in drum are good and square nothing rounded or worn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusto Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Is it hitting the retainer plate behind the star? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusto Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Bad forks are hard to tell. They don’t need to be bent just rounded and it will cause problems. Were you at in AB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albertaborn Posted January 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Red deer. The retainer plate is well in it groove and with the spring and roller removed, drum seems to turn well and smooth through all the gears. It look like an aftermarket star being it looks like it has the smoother profile. Its pined and basically impossible to put it on wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 If you’re trying to get it to shift through all 6 gears, you’ll need to be spinning the output shaft forward at the same time or everything will bind or stop half way between shifts.
