so i finally got around to the dealer today. i couldnt take my bike because i dont want to mess up my tranny, but i did take pics and videos with my phone. the dealership told me i just need a rebuild kit ($42 from them) and a clutch lever ($20 from them) plus $150 in labor. then i went to the ONLY other bike shop we have and he told me they dont know what they are talking about and i need the whole thing. $209 from http://www.ronayers.com/fiche/frames...50&parent=5440 plus $50 labor plus fluids to bleed everything. I have tooked at my housing and my lever goes on with bolt and stays like its supposed to, pivots and all. yhe only thing that i am seeing that i would need to replace would be the shaft and springs that go into the housing from the lever which would just mean rebuild kit. to make a long story short, if my housing is still in tact and everything on the right side of my housing LOOKS good, do i still need buy the whole assy? i know it sounds dumb, but for all i know this may be one of those things you have to replace if just olne piece breakes. Im hoping that buying a new housing, lever and rebuild kit will fix everything. any opinions?

 

hey trips, where did you get that diagrams from?

 

and does anyone have a close up picture of an actual shift lever off of there personal bike? or something close to it, it would help a great deal. thanks in advance

 

I got the pic of the Service Manual
