Hi,
My 04 SV has a bad problem at the mo, I presume is a gearbox/clutch failure, it will not pull off in any gear but 1st, even when you do in 1st, any other gear and it wont pull off. The Neutral light is on but still stalls letting the clutch out. Probably not explained very well but, if any light can be shed it would be a great help thanks. |

Sometimes it will if you can get it into gear then you can roll it fine. Hard to explain it will feel like you have put into gear but even if you rev it to 4k and let the clutch out it will just go no where until the revs drop then it will cut out |

Humour me here... Why are you trying to pull away in any gear other than 1st?

Because I know there's a problem so I am seeing how different variables are acting...

Ok. First thing, have you checked your clutch and chain adjustment?

First thing you need to do is to check and adjust where needed the clutch and the chain. If your unsure there is some good information and how to guides on here, just give it a little search. After that try again and report back.

Bit of an update, got the bike home, once the bike has warmed up you can get it into gear and N you can ride in first but with a knocking sound from below, also in N there is a knocking sound but if you pull the clutch in it stops, pull off in 1st shift up to 2nd /3rd/4th revs like in N get to 5th and 6th you can ride
