Hey, I did a burn out on my VFR 1999 model. And now I cant get it in Gear...! When I slip out the cluts nothing hapens when I release the clutch, it is just as it stays in free whoever gear I put it in :( I hope I havent destroyd the gear boxs.

I did the burn out In only 10 sec... because I was going to switch tires. What wrong with my bike ? I use it every day ..

Plz help me!

If you did not hear a lot crunching noise from your gearbox, I think you might have killed your clutch.......

Slide it in to gear with the engine off.  Move the bike back and forth slightly if necessary to help the gears line up.  Then pull in the clutch lever and see if you can move the bike - if not it's probably not releasing.  Have a look at your clutch fluid and see what it looks like and if it's got enough.  You may just need to flush / bleed the hyrdraulic system.

I tried it and move it back and forth , suddenly it went into gear. Never been so happy, came 50m same problem .... Tried and do the same thing over and over again . but no result ...


What I am most much concerned about is whether this is going and be expensive?

Sorry bad english..

So with engine off and dropping it into any gear is there any drag at all?  does it ever click into any gear?


#7

Its sounds as its getting in gear, but i dont get any drag anymore.. a bit when I go back in 1 gear, but feel there is less and less the more I try : /

If it were mine I would inspect / service the hydraulic fluid, then if it still persists remove the clutch cover and see what's going on with the clutch.  The service manual can be downloaded here for free.  Both can be accomplished with basic hand tools.  If you do remove the clutch cover, do not scrape the aluminum surfaces with a steel scraper -  the machined surfaces could be gouged possibly causing a leak.
