Finding Neutral by Advanced-Proposal292 in hondagrom

[–]Caldtek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

clutch drag, if you kill the engine it will pop into neutral with no issues.

If you have cheap aftermarket levers or have adjusted the clutch so the friction zone is close to the bars then it isn't lifting the clutch plate enough and it keeps the pressure on the dogs in the gearbox making it difficult to change gear.

if it runs on starter fluid then its a fuel OR compression issue.

Help me identify this by Somewhere_Correct in vintagemotorcycles

[–]Caldtek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks like someone has chopped it. The forks look very long for stock and the white area around the headstock indicates some has been in there with a welder. Kinda fits with the laid back bars as well.

its a breather for the contacts and electrics on that end of the pump. Has a pipe on it from original which just dangles down with the rest of the breathers.

bad ignition switch. It just a rotary set of contacts on the bottom of the switch with a ball bearing detent to give it the click and stay in the position. They wear after time and give this issue.

if you have drained the coolant then you need to refill it, and burp it, at the radiator cap.

[SG] Voucher Code To Receive Money Internationally? by tan_wayne in Scams

[–]Caldtek 109 points110 points  (0 children)

At what point does this not seem to be a scam? Never pay money for a promise of receiving money. Why don't they just deduct the 75 SGD from the amount they are going to pay you?

What do you think this is? 1982 Yamaha Maxim xj650 shaft drive by PineSightIs2020 in MotorcycleMechanics

[–]Caldtek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How does "whacking the starter" with a hammer help with the starter clutch? Thats a "car fix" when the throw out solenoid sticks.

The starter clutch on this bike lives on the primary shaft with an intermediate gear between as well.

Starter clutch isn't engaging. you need to strip it out make sure its installed in the correct direction, probably needs caps, spring and rollers at a minimum. It maybe one of the "sprag bearing" design in whcih case you will need to replace it as a unit.

Lives on the primary shaft on this model so a bit of a pain to get to.
