Hi all, I’ve recently done the whole lot on the XS - custom wiring, bushings, bearings, electronics and an engine rebuild.
The engine was shifting fine when I had it on the bench but now I’m having an issue with the shift cam. It’s probably easiest to see in the video, but there’s sometimes a funny clunk when I turn the shift cam and the tension spring doesn’t come back. Sometimes it will shift through all gears no problem but other times (like in the video) I need to go back and forth to get it to shift properly… any ideas? I rebuilt the transmission with a rebuilt crank and all the same gears which worked fine before
