ight i just adjusted the clutch cable but if u crank it in gear it kinda rolls a lil so the cable cant b all the way tight im going to buy a new cable but when ur riding it, it revs really high and his hard to shift up any ideas?
 
it sounds like when your running really fast its like your clutch isnt engaging. know what i mean? then it would be like not pulling it in at all and if your still on the throttle it trys to resist the shift.
 
Sounds like you need a new clutch but I'd also check your fluid levels. I filled mine too high before and it was hard to shift. I let some out and got it to the proper level and it shifted fine.
 
I agree with checking the trans oil level, may blaster had 1+ quart in the trans when I bought it and did the same thing. After changing the oil and filling it to the proper level my clutch worked as it should. Never hurts to check the cheap stuff first.
 
even if your clutch sint disengauging fully you should still shift fine.. i can shift my blasters with out using the clutch.. up and down shifts, just let of the gas a lil and click it up, there are now clunks or grinds so its not hurting anything,
 
does it sound like this????

if so, you need new clutch plates.....
