Fzr1000 Genesis 2nd gear

Throwing the chain will bend the clutch pushrod??

Yes, They could not have aimed the chain path any better for the rod if they tried. Be sure to check your chain size if it needs a new one. Might have came with a 532 and they are getting harder and harder to find for anything under $250.
Arrow points to push rod.

Its definitely something in the shift mechanism though
found this clip out of place behind the clutch basket. Still haven't removed the basket yet, need to buy that socket

I can only find 1 spring like that.
I've never been good with transmissions, but from what I did find. Broken "torsion springs" are consistent with not shifting properly.

Found this on an xj site.
Couldn't get her out of (whichever gear you were in when the problem occurred).

This situation can be caused wither by a broken TENSION SPRING (the small linear-acting spring) or by the TORSION SPRING (the one with one straight arm and one "hooked" arm). Both of these springs are designed to keep the pawl arm properly engaged with the shifter drum "star wheel" segment. Note there is also a long SCREW which retains this star wheel to the shifter drum; if that screw is loose, it will allow the star wheel to rock back and forth or not even engage with the drum, also resulting in the same type of issue.

I wish it were that spring, but i got in there with my bore scope from underneath and can see that one clearly undamaged.. we'll find out soon though

Well just figured out what broke the bike.. threw a chain.. the shift rod that is below the sprocket has some scaring on it and tons of up and down slop also pours oil out when you run the bike. Secondly the cover is broken in several places

Bike didnt have a chain when i got it didn't think anything of it since the clutch slave cylinder is airborne

[Oldman99]

Well fudge.
Is it fixable? Pics please....

[thebrandonbeezy]

It probably will be, still haven't gotten the basket off, probably will this weekend

[thebrandonbeezy]

Apparently you can remove the entire shifter assembly with out splitting the case so thats a plus

I was thinking you could probably do that - after all it just goes through the case to where the action is behind the clutch basket. Make sure there are no burrs or bends on the shifter shaft near the linkage or it might get stuck on the way out.

Found a 5 part video about a guy installing a shift kit on a yzf600. Same-ish trans that ours have. It starts with old video clips, but he shows how it works and some things to look for when you have her apart.
Hope this helps.

Partzilla has the shaft for $27.12
It's fits a shockingly high number of bikes.
