Hi Xmudbear.

You will be officially wecomed soon.

In order to see if this is a clutch issue can you tell us if you can shift form neutral to 1st with certainty.

If the bike is definitely in 1st then you can, with the bike on it's centre stand, try to rotate the wheel ( be carefull to avoid the sprockets) if you cannot rotate the wheel then you clutch is engaged.

It may not have enough friction under power but that may be s imple adjustment issue that you can figure out using the resources at the Basscliff website.
