blank slate
XS650 Addict
Believe me I hate asking for help. But when all options have been exhausted I have no choice.
First I looked into my 4 manuals which are useless. Then did searches, and found some videos that gave me ideas.
I read 5twins’s post here

But no matter what, I cannot get the bike out of neutral. Yes there is a ball inside the adjuster mechanism. Spring is good. When I pull the clutch handle I can see the adjuster mechanism pull in and out a half inch or so. The foot shifter is held strong but doesnt “click” to let me know gear has shifted. So Im thinking this is where my issue is, with the foot pedal shifter thing.
If this gets fixed today I get to ride the bike for the first time this year. Help!
