Hey guys,
I built a 76 xs from scratch with eBay parts. So everything was from different bikes and sources. So I don't have a frame of reference as to how it worked before. That being said the bike is together running great. The problems am having is shifting. It doesn't shift easily. You need to be pretty for flu to get it into gear. Especially downshifting. I have down all the clutch adjustments shown here and even replaced the clutch. So now I'm looking at other things. The neutral detent has a very stiff spring and the cap pushes down really hard on the little dowel thing. Is it possible there is too much pressure causing shit difficulties?
Thanks for any input.
