morepower Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Hey guys. having problems with my 2003 XVS 125. It will go into 1st gear but not any other gear, when i managed to get it into 2nd gear and back into neutral the engine will not start now. The gear problem came about because the gear pedal was hit from the front. Does any body have any idea what could be done to fix this issue-i.e if there is a linkage in the gearbox of some thing that would require replacing? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator mervin Posted January 23, 2008 Moderator Share Posted January 23, 2008 not knowing too much (stuff all actually) about the bike i cannot say exactly what is inside. but i would imagine the gear change shaft is bent, that is if the lever connects direct to the shaft, if you have a linkage between the lever and shaft check that is not damaged Merv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
