How can I tell if the the ball is still in there? Do I have to take the clutch housing off the other side and pull the whole thing out? Although it might be worth it to put in the one piece pushrod in. As far as a problem, no just getting to know the motor. It's not running yet, I'm getting another 78 xs650 tomorrow for $200.00 complete, runs but no title, guy just needs to get rid of it. PARTS BIKE, YEAH! May just swap motors.
