My transmission is clunking into gear and hard to find the gears sometimes the shift leaver just moves up and down not shifting into any gear stuck in neutral? What could cause this?

Clunking into first? Kinda normal. Louder clunking and hard to find neutral, usually clutch adjustment. When you cant get it into a gear, is the bike running? That is fairly normal at times when the bike is not running. Clutch baskets that have had a hard life can get grooves in them from the plates causing them to hang up.Current Rides: 82 GS1100E, 00 Triumph 955 Speed Triple:twistedevil:, 03 Kawasaki ZRX1200, 01 Honda GL1800, '15 Kawasaki 1000 Versys

Yes the bike is running the shift leaver is on tight. When i'm riding and change gears sometimes I can move the shift leaver up down and its like nothing is there. I'll mess with the clutch adjustment and see what happens.Comment

When riding down the road you dont need a clutch to shift. Cut throttle to unload the gear you are coming out of, and select the next gear. If you cant "speed shift" it when riding, you have a transmission issue.....BillyComment
