try to put it back as best you can. And yea that can cause problems now, good luck with that
The way to check your clutch plates for functionality, without being able to run your bike in gear, is by walking with your bike as I mentioned before. Just pull in the clutch, put the bike in 1st and walk with it. While you're walking, let the clutch go and the rear wheel should lock up. Pull in the clutch and you can walk again.
If your plates are bad, your rear wheel will not lock up. Easy.
To check your gears, try to do a running start. Push the bike when it's in 2nd with the clutch pulled in, then when you've got some speed, jump on the bike and let the clutch go. The bike should turn over 2 or 3 turns before you come to a stop, depending on how big you are and how fast you ran. As I said, this is a way to get the bike to start, so don't be surprised if you take off Do the same in 3rd gear, and it should be easier to roll through the compression. Test every gear like this, it should barely cost any effort to push it forward in 5th.
If you feel like it gets easier to push the bike through the compression every time you go up a gear, they're good. If there's something wrong, you'll notice something being off.
