[QUOTE="Jim65, post: 61931, member: 22812"] I just rebuilt the top and bottom end on my '85XR250. My problem was that it would not stay in gear. The first thing I would check, is the shifter hitting the guard on the front sprocket? Sometimes a tooth on the shaft will strip and cause the shifter to hit. Check carefully because it is easy to miss. If it's not a simple fix, you are probably stuck with splitting the cases and checking things out. Stuck shifting may mean that your shift drum is notched, but it would probalby shift with other gears. Other options are that you have a bent shift fork and it is causing the hangup. On your model, you have three of them. Another scenario is that the springs in the shifter are crapped out and somehow hanging things up. If you decide to split the cases, drop me a line. ------------------ [/QUOTE]
