I parked my 350 with ES and cant get it out of 5th gear. It sounds like it want to shift, but nothing happens. I looked at the cable where it enters the transmission, and its not moving so must be something wrong with the cable or ??????Anybody have this problem? Also, isnt there a way to manually shift it???? Help!! Thanks

 

ok, if you have the ES system, the bike comes with an 'emergency shifter' in the trunk back by the tool kit. Its a long silver thing with a hex-hole in one end. this hex fits onto the simlilarly shaped shaft down by the left footwell. put hte tool on there and turn the shaft forward while rocking the machine or rolling it. It should shift all the way back down to neutral. If not, you have a mechanical problem with the machine that will need dealer attention (and will most likely be expensive)

If you can get it to shift ok, do the clutch adjustment. If you dont know how, buy a manual, or do a search, we are tired of explaining how to do it. If it still acts up, you will need a manual to help you out more, there are many things that can cause this, like weak batteries, corroded connections, etc.

 

Thanks for the info.........I ordered the repair manual
