    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

please help. i put the cover back on and the clutch wont disengage... god this sucks. please help me!
 
On the sprocket cover that the cable goes through there is an actuator. It pushes the clutch rod through the motor and seperates the clutch fibers and steels. The actuator is probably not on the clutch rod right or is is jammed.
With the cover off pull the clutch cable and see how the piece in the cover moves in and out. There is also an adjustment on this.
 
well

well

the rod just pulls straight out and doesnt activate to anything.. how do i get it back in.
