Hello all, I’m new to this forum and have 1981 xs650. When I got the bike the shifter wasn’t on the bike, nor was the rear brake linkage. He gave me the parts but said something about welding a bracket to the frame in order for them to work.
I finally got them bolted down without needing to weld anything but when I shift the bike the clutch lever is very firm and the shifter just rotates. The bike doesn’t shift but the whole shifter rotates. Also I haven’t got the rear brake connected yet. If you know anything I’d love to hear some advice!
