    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi guys, I am new to the Japanese bikes and love the GS650E that I have.

I wanted to see If some one has had a similar problem before tearing into the bike.

I put 70 miles or so on the motorcycle yesterday, down shifted from 5th gear to 3rd and clutch stopped engaging in all gears.
Bike has been running perfect with no slipping of the clutch and is full of oil.

Thanks for
 
Thanks for responding, nut is still on. Clutch basket and all discs look good. No cracks or chips any where. Bike only has 8100 original miles
 
"clutch stopped engaging in all gears"

to clarify.. You mean the engine was reving, but no power thru clutch/ transmission?

or, pulling in clutch hand lever does nothing?
 
Engine revs, no power through clutch and trans.
Clutch lever still engages pressure plate.
 
Try readjusting the clutch actuator mechanism on the left side. I had similar problems, from one day to the next it went from gripping well to a lot of slippage.
