seems like the shift linkage has bound up


Recommended Posts

The shifter does not want to slide thru the gears with the engine off or on. reverse did grind with the motor running so I know the clutch needs adjustment. Any tips on adjusting the clutch?

 

How about adjusting the shift linkage. Any tips there?

It is a 5 speed in the 86 Brat.

 

My thanks to the forum.

5speed in a brat? Did you swap it?

 

There are adjusting nuts on the cable where it goes through the clutch fork. You should have about 1/4" play at the fork, and have a return spring.

If the clutch isn't disengaging the cable is probably getting old and stretching, tighten it up a bit.
