    1978 gs750e clutch problem

    i have an 78' gs750 while cruising down the road the chain came off on me and jammed into the clutch push rod bending it badly and causing an oil leak due to it jarring the push rod seal ......so i'm trying to replace the push rod but cannot get it to come out i've been told by several people that it should just pull right out with a pair of pliers but it comes out about 2 inches and then just stops...is there something i'm missing or does it have something to do with the chain bending it

    any help or advice would be appreciated

    thanks

    Must be bent more farther in, might be able to pull it as far out as you can, cut it off, and push it out the right side.

      By looking at this diagram the push rod has a thread on the end of it so maybe it unscrews? I haven't removed mine so I don't know for sure.

        That is not a thread. It is a coil to keep the rod centered. It must be removed from the clutch side of the engine.
