Strange

[floridaredneck]

When i give it gas in any gear except first it will die. But if i pull the clutch in the idle will go back up then drop all of a sudden if i let the clutch out. I will be going down the road and it will act like there is no spark then when you pull the clutch in it runs fine. Also i have to pull the clutch in when i start it even when its in Neutral. So im guessing my clutch is messed. Can some one give me a pointer of where to start or to look at?

Thanks

I would check your parking brake sensor first, theres a little lever next to your clutch lever, if it is out just a little bit to far it will apply a weird rev limiter.

 

[floridaredneck]

Parking brake is off, so its not that

so youve done the removal kit?, and you unhooked the wires right? beyond that I would have to say maybe the neutral dectector wire might be off of its spot down by the shifter, something in your wiring, or maybe your clutch?

Yeh i got the brake block off. Once i get the engine back together ill see whats going on.

ok

how's your compression?

 

[floridaredneck]

Compression should be fine. It has fine power in first. I can check that out sometime.

Its strange i took it for a lil ride today and it didn't do it. I think i found out what it is. That little sensor on the clutch is warn out and i think that has something to do with it. I cleaned it out with WD-40 and a wire brush and i don't have to pull in the clutch to start it.

Yeah sound right. If you cut that wire ( Don't) and then tie the 2 ends together then you can start the bike with out pulling the clutch in any gear. Thats what people do when they got aftermarket clutch levers.

I think i am going to cut that wire and tie the ends together.

 

[mclarenkid69]

Do it. I said don't because I don't want you doing something that you might later regret

Cant see anything messing up. Just where the connector for it is ill disconnect it and put a wire running from one side to the other and take it for a spin. If **** fies i just have to plug it back in a try something else.

Mine's like that too, as long as you don't accidentally press the starter in gear you'll be fine.

I found a wire with a clip on each end. Took the sensor off where the connector is and put the wires on and it seem to run good. Im gonna go and give it a hour ride and see if it acts up before the big ride this weekend

I just cut the wires and butt connected them togther, because I have an aftermarket clutch perch.
