[QUOTE="Rileysaurus, post: 1469376, member: 141283"] So I picked up an 80 Kawasaki ke175, no clue how long it hasnt been running, and finally got it going with a carb rebuild. The thing runs good and shifts pretty good from 1 N 2. It does not want to kick up into 3 4 or 5 when running. I pulled the [URL='http://i.viglink.com/?key=06cc29be92cd2056126dba7a4f64b336&insertId=79b5188680ad1a2b&type=CD&exp=-100%3ACILITE%3A206&libId=jn7p6btm01000ip4000DA1gqdf7staramu&loc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.kawasakimotorcycle.org%2Fforum%2Fkawasaki-motocross-offroad%2F187613-80-ke175-sticky-gears.html&v=1&iid=79b5188680ad1a2b&out=http%3A%2F%2Fmotorcycle.chaparral-racing.com%2Fsearch%3Fw%3Dclutch&title=80%20ke175%20sticky%20gears%20-%20Kawasaki%20Motorcycle%20Forums&txt=%3Cspan%3Eclutch%3C%2Fspan%3E']clutch[/URL], deglazed the plates and checked it all over. It has 1 broken tine on the each of the outer 2 friction plates but otherwise in good working order. I took it for a trail ride today and was able to powershift into 3 4 and 5 if i leaned over and yanked up on the shifter. The bike does not travel through the gears well tho and I had to stop and shift from 3rd to 2nd by hand. It seemed to free up the more i forced it through the gears but is still very sticky. Is feels like the shift drum is sticking but I dont want to pull the motor if I dont have to. Any tricks to freeing up the tranny? [/QUOTE]
