Guest longrider Posted July 6, 2008 Share #1 Posted July 6, 2008 Have an 83 venture that has just developed 2 gear problems about 4000 miles ago. Sold it to my brother and he was doing fine but lately has a problem that I can not figure out. At times it will just not shift or will only shift to some gears. But when he calls me to troubleshoot it over the phone, it shifts okay. I figure it is something loose on the linkage but wondered if there is something in trans that would cause this. Runs great and no noise from trans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cutty Posted July 7, 2008 Share #2 Posted July 7, 2008 1. check clutch fluid 2. check brass bushing in clutch handle for wear (replace if worn and lub it) 3. bleed if to much free play to activate clutch 4. Check shift drum for loose pins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saddle_Bag Posted July 8, 2008 Share #3 Posted July 8, 2008 Ditto above. I'm not sure if the Star Washer has those type of problems associated with it, but if the clutch checks out , it might be something to look into. joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
