Anybody have a shift drum out that can take some pictures for me? I just had this thing together and proper, able to shift through all the gears, neutral was fine etc. Just tossed it back together and it seems I put the pawl blocking plate in the wrong spot in the pin area. If some one can snap a pic or two of it's proper position relative to the drum itself, it would be much appreciated.

I thought it went closest to the locating dowel on the pawl side, but when I have it there it will go through the gears and back over then get stuck in neutral, and I can see that the block doesn't let the pawls engage. So I for sure have it wrong.

I'll start moving it one position at a time til I find it, but would be nice to just get it right the first time after I take it back apart.

Thanks pals!
 
And nevermind.
Note to self- When you know something should be somewhere, check to make sure you put it there before asking for help.

All works fine now.
 
:eek:Dang it! I just spent an hour and a half tearing the bottom off my project engine to get you some pictures to come back an see you have it fixed!

Just kidding, glad you got it working!:bike::thumbsup:
 
Lol I'd feel real bad if you did that! But if you did, I'd like a picture of third gear engaged since it doesn't look right on mine.... So get to tearing down! lol

Now I feel bad as the actual project engine is an XS650! Don't think picture of that would help.

Try posting a picture of yours pointing out what looks wrong and maybe some one can help.

Apologize for letting my smart a$$ side post!
 
How is this pic? I had this since my last tear down.
