Without the bike running, if I hold up on the shifter, as if to shift from 3rd to 4th, and spin the rear tire, it sounds like gears are trying to engage but not just quite enough (seems like I am not getting full throw on the shifter either going from 3rd to 4th, almost, but not quite). I am a bit baffled by the location of the cam stop too (the lever with the roller bearing and spring that sits in the shifter cam). The manual doesn't illustrate this well enough, does anyone have a pic to show the correct orientation? The roller bearing sits in the slot of the shifter cam, and is between the shifter cam and the trans gear, not below the shifter cam? Seems it can't go any other way. This has me absolutely hand tied.

Need HELP - GS1100ES won't shift from 3rd to 4th
Need assistance please, working on a GS1100ES that I had apart for new gaskets and seals, and won't shift from 3rd to 4th. Bike shifted from 1 through 3rd no problem at all. Took out the clutch and took off the pan to have a look .... the shifting forks are sitting correctly in the slots on both sets of trans gears and the tangs are also in the correct grooves on the shifter cam. The 2 spring loaded shifter pawls were also verified to be in the correct orientation sitting flush with the rear of the shifter cam gear (was told to verify this).

Fixed .... had the cam stop (the lever with the bearing and the spring that rides on the shifter cam) reversed. The service manual I have (pdf copy) doesn't show the orientation clearly so I looked to an online fiche, which ends up is illustrated wrong as per the correct direction it is supposed to face. The fiche shows the round boss on the lever facing the shifter fork, but, it is supposed to face the left side of the case.
