Hi guys pls help.i changed my sprocket and chain today and had to take off my gear shift.after putting it back on can not get any gears what have i done wrong.i have found neutral but my light does not come on.but no other gears pls help what i have to do thanks in advance.yamaha rxs 100 i have.

you only took off the gear lever...nothing else?

Hi airhead.yes gear leverand the seround case by stator.also case where my clutch cable goes into to get to the varator nut.

what's a verator nut?

cant think why you cannot select gears though, what none at all?

I took everything off to expose the nut to take off.the nut that keeps the front sproket on.when i put it all back and the gear lever nothing,my bike was stuck in gear and could not shift up or down.

you have to rock it back and forth to be able to change gears...are you doing this?

I've not done that airhead,at the monent it is in neutral.so i will put gear shift back on select 1st gear if i can.if not rock back and forth.will this inline my gears back to normal 1 down 4 up.thanks

it is not possible to select gears when the engine is stopped without rocking the bike back and forth

Ok airhead thanks.I'm in work at the mo will try when i get home then.will let you know how i get on.

Mayb you did not put your gear lever in in original place mayb I had a old pit bike years ago that I done it to and would not go in gear till I got it back in the proper place

Dr rich maybe it could be that,how did you get over that.put it on and check,and if not take off and move slightly and so on was it.

just make sure the lever doent hit the frame or the engine casing when you move it

Yep that's how I done it don't take to long next time get a tipex pen and mark it so u no where it lines up if it is that

Airhead and dt rich.thanks for your help,i did what you said rich took 3 attemps but all sorted now thankyou.

Normally there is a mark on the splined shaft that needs to line up with the split in the lever

Ride it for a couple of days, if its still good, then mark the end of the shaft with a centre pop, where it lines up with the split. That wont wash off
