GS1100EZ Stuck in neutral

[Guest]

Hi all,


Firstly apologies if this is a topic that has been answered.

on my GSX1100EZ I have recently replaced the gear shift linkages on the toe shift and put new levers on the bars.

I didn't change the position of the clutch cable except for the lever end being disengaged and replacing the lever.

I have changed the position of the toe shift slightly though.

Now I can't shift out of neutral. It was fine before?

Would this simply be a clutch cable play issue and the clutch not disengaging properly?

Can you feel the clutch pull in and release? What part did you replace/fiddle with ?

Yes there is clutch pull and release.

I removed the toe shift and replaced the linkages as they had become worn. I also removed the clutch lever and replaced it with a new one. The old one was pretty shabby.

I ended up taking the clutch cable off adjusting the spring slightly on the clutch shift lever (right side of the engine). Put the clutch cable back on. Adjusted everything to spec. Rotated the rear wheel and the bike on the centre stand for 10 minutes. Then I ran through the gears. All is good now. I think.
