trex banshee Posted October 10, 2005 Report Posted October 10, 2005 (edited) okay i was out drag racing at our annual sunday afternoon drags in front of my house and every thing was good until about my fifth or sixth run when i tried going to from 3rd to 4th it wouldn't go so i tried pulling again still nothing. i stopped and the shifter was like 3 inches higher than usuall and all i could do was down shift to 2nd. so know it is stuck in 2nd and 3rd gear. what do you guys/girls think the problem is?

reded Posted October 10, 2005 Report Posted October 10, 2005 If the shift shaft has enough side play it could have slid over far enough to come loose from the pin and shift star. Pull the clutch side cover off and see if it has come loose. This is probably where your trouble lies anyway, so you'll hafta pull it regardless. Don't feel bad, alot of em don't like to go to fourth, mine included. Quote
switchblade Posted October 10, 2005 Report Posted October 10, 2005 You probably broke the bolt/pin that the shiftsaft slides over. It is used to adjust the shiftsaft on the shiftstar. I have broke those before. Just pop of the sidecase to check. Quote
trex banshee Posted October 10, 2005 Author Report Posted October 10, 2005 i was guessing it had something to do with the shift star. i do not have a lock out. i don't think it just came off because it will still shift from second to third and back again just fine, but those are the only two gears i have.

switchblade Posted October 11, 2005 Report Posted October 11, 2005 I don't think it's the shift star. I think it is the adjuster pin the the shiftshaft slide over. Quote
trex banshee Posted October 11, 2005 Author Report Posted October 11, 2005 so if it is the adjuster pin would that let the shift star just spin right? i am gone all week so i will take it apart friday afternoon when i get home to see who is right, i knew it was something in that vacinity but i was just "testing" the HQers knowledge on some things to see who his right some more suggestions would be nice personally i think the shift star may be broken but i will find out friday.

switchblade Posted October 11, 2005 Report Posted October 11, 2005 Hey its just my 2 cents worth. Let me know what it is. Good luck Quote
trex banshee Posted October 11, 2005 Author Report Posted October 11, 2005 ok thanks for the replys Quote
FASTOYS Posted October 17, 2005 Report Posted October 17, 2005 Sounds like the end of your shift shaft flipped around on ya!!! Do you need any help or parts ? Pm me!!! Let us know what it is..... Quote
trex banshee Posted October 17, 2005 Author Report Posted October 17, 2005 okay i took the side case off and all that happened was the shifter had moved out just enough to get in a jam so all i had to do was push it back in and it snapped and the shifter went back to the right location. i gues i got lucky nothing was broken. thanks again Quote
