Default Can't get 3rd gear.

Im having problems getting 3rd gear, i was racing a banshee and a 250cc dirtbike( my 2 friends) and it wouldn't go into 3rd. I have the cluth all the way in and it won't shift, anyone have any clue as to what is up? Do i have to adjust my Clutch?

Is just 3ed gear not working? I dont think its your clutch if so. Were you power shifting? Maybee your lever is hitting something? That happend on my LT, a screew backed out and wouldent let my shift up. Good luck.

It will shift to 3rd when im riding trails, but when im drag racing and at full throttle it won't let me hit 3rd. Oh, and when i first start the bike the clutch dosn't work at first, like the first shift is a clunk then it works fine.

The clunk is just the tranny, not your clutch, when your bike is in 1st gear, with motor off, pull in the clutch and try to push it. If it rolls nice and easy, your clutch is fine. Do you let off the gas when you shift?
