having great difficulty getting neutral, changed oil, clutch adjusted, any ideas please?..ted

It's just between 1st and 2nd!!!

Sorry, couldn't help myself, more details needed, problems selecting others gears??

Rob.

are you sure you have adjusted the clutch cable too much??try undoing the clutch cable a little that might make it better, also does it try to 'creep' forward when in 1st with clutch held in?if so i would say its the cable sticking of needs adjusting.hope this helps
let us know how you get on

o dosn,t try and creep, it,s not dragging, it is a bit stiff between the gears, but they do go in, man i bought it off is sending me a set of plates and a cable, i,ll try that.all these years of riding, and i never realized it was between 1st and 2nd,lol

ok ye i would try the cable before you start taking the clutch apart.ye let us know as it might help someone else out in the future.

try adjusting your gear linkage rod

may be a worn selector fork too.

will let you know what happens, when i get back from a week in scotland, thanks for the suggestions..ted

update on not being able to select neutral, having bought bike as a sp, on stripping clutch down, found an ordinary clutch, not slipper! but close box, some berk had at some point, been at it, and there were 3 drive plates together! instead of alternating them, i.e. friction/drive etc, so have now got a proper slipper clutch to fit, but iv,e just put a friction plate in, and it works ok! so will wait till winter probably to fit slipper..ted

Begs the question is it really an SP ?

afaik H1-SP's didnt have the kbatl (slipper) clutch as standard ..


still, least its working now

And my question still stands.

I'll always remember the SP I saw for sale on Ebay the owner said it was a SP based on someone having written "sports production" in crayon on the seat unit

well, it has the close ration box for certain, and the green shocker!


and hear it is..ted

Looks well in fact it looks very well

You got the flatsides ?
And how you so certain about gearbox ?

16 front sprocket I assume ?

Did the J1 come with flatslides? Never been quite sure if they did.
