I certainly will check those. Having just tried the suggestions in the previous posts does lead me to think it's either the clutch or the gearbox. Having tried to let the clutch out very slowly itsdieing before biting point as even giving it too much throttle it never even seems to want to bite and just dies away.

To be honest I had been working on another bike over the winter and only turning the engine over on the xvs and every week and doing basic maintenance. So if it is the clutch or gearbox I wont have noticed as I wasnt trying to ride. I'm not exactly new to bikes but as this is the first shaft driven bike Ive owned I'm a little relucktant to to play around with the shaft drive thats why I was a bit worried in case it was that. Buy a Haynes manual and start reading up about the clutch and or gearbox time I guess. Thanks for all the replies and help guys.

Hello Im having a problem with my XVS Dragstar Custom 400cc. The engine is running fine but when you put the bike into gear and release the clutch the bike remains stationary and the engine stalls . I have been told its either a problem with the transmission or shaft ie something has seized. - I really hope not as this is beyond my ability. Or the side stand safety has gone wonky. Could anybody tell me where to find this and how to test it? Cheers.

I don't think the front fender will as the forks and front wheel size is different. Unable to confirm about the rear fender as I have been unable to purchase one yet to try it out.

Hello, can I do the reverse, could I fit a Classics rear fender to my Custom?
