yz125 02' Transmission/clutch problem

[rpizz]

my Son just purchase a used bike. It Starts first kick on a cold engine. However, take the bike out of Neutral and in to first the bike stalls due to clutch not disengaging the tranny.

So where should we start. Clutch cable adjustment doesn't do the trick. So any good troubleshooting tips you can refer me to?

Thanks,

Ron

It the cable stretched? Maybe time for a new one?

NO cable problem. If I take the cable off with the bike on a stand and using a screwdriver to actuate the lever I still can not get it to disengage.

Grooves in the clutch basket! Guaranteed.

Unfortunately it looks like your bike is probably in need of a new clutch basket.

If I was you, I would get a Hinson basket. Most durable you can get and is used by most factory teams.

Thanks to all who replied we finally did end up replacing the clutch basket major groves. You guy are good.
