Message: [QUOTE="04mach1, post: 1052368, member: 69182"] :bang: ok guys im new to the biking scene and after a week and a half i welded the rod to the crank in my bike. i searched the internet for a motor and i found one on **** for 125.00 US. it wasnt complete. but 95 percent was there. the guy told me it was all rebuilt and such. as i went to pick it up. he seemed to know his s*&t.. anyhoo i get home, put my piston on his rod and dropped my cylinder on. next i had to put my clutch basket in his motor. so i popped that in as well as the kick starter and the shift pawl ( sp ) the little half gear that is connected to the shift lever worked from your left toes. once this was complete i buttoned it up. next i moved over and swapped my magnito ( sp ) into the new housing and the job should have been finished. he warned me since i havent done this sorta thing before, but i have a car backround that i should " bench test " it before going to ride. so i mached it into the bike and put the chain on. it has no neutral and seems to only have 4 gears. i followed the manual to a T and it took me about 5 hours to complete the job this far as i didnt wanna rush. so now i removed the motor from the bike and took off the cover that my clutch sits in. any ideas on what could be wrong in there? thanks alot i hope to be riding again soon!
