Did you put alittle grease on the pins on shift forks that ride in the ramps of shift drum . question. Do you have engine laying on. It's side while turning star? If so that will make it harder.because of gravity.and weight of gearsSomething I did notice is that when I was turning the shift star, at some points it would get like stuck but would eventually turn over. In other words its wasn't a 100 % smooth rotation.
Yes I put some assembly lube on before putting cases together, and when I was testing the gears the motor was upright just like it would be as if it were in the bike frame.Did you put alittle grease on the pins on shift forks that ride in the ramps of shift drum . question.

Is it from clutch cover hopefully??If from case halfs it will need to be installedQuick question.... I found a extra dowel/pin, That means that one might be missing from the crankcase, would this cause shifting problems?
Turning at a slow speed you will fell some resistance till the. Lugs on the gears messSomething I did notice is that when I was turning the shift star, at some points it would get like stuck but would eventually turn over. In other words its wasn't a 100 % smooth rotation.

I will have to split the cases, but that's exactly why I bought a tusk case splitter.. lolIs it from clutch cover hopefully??If from case halfs it will need to be installed
Will split cases and take photos of what's in side before I put together again, and no I did not have someone holding the input shaft, but I was spinning the output shaft with the sprocket on, sometimes it would get stuck but would eventually turn. when I was doing this I felt first gear engage, but I didn't really feel any other gears but 1 and neutral.There are two dowel pins for the case half’s and yes you need both for everything to line up 100% correctly. There are also two for the cylinder to cases and two for the clutch cover as well.
If it were me I know I just would not sleep at night unless I split the cases again just to make sure everything is A ok, but then again that’s just me. Also, when trying to shift it were you spinning the output/sprocket shaft while trying to shift with the shift lever? And if yes, did you also have someone hold the input shaft where the clutch basket goes or the other way around? Because if you do not it will take it a bit longer to engage the gears.
I like to spin the clutch/trans axle while holding slight pressure on the output sprocket/ trans axles simulating a chain on the sprocket holding it still. I then have someone shift the shift lever as I spin the shaft.
So you have both dowels for clutch cover correct? Pulls apart easy from clutch side.I will have to split the cases, but that's exactly why I bought a tusk case splitter.. lol
I think i did mention to see if it was from clutch cover?After splitting the cases, it looks like that i did in fact have that dowel in there, so it might be one from the clutch side....
For one. Everything looks extremely dry?that is bad.you need to put whatever you are using for trans fluid on shafts and gears. Ain't nothing going to slide easy like that. That fork in your hand in picturePics
