Wooooo Hoooo got it running, but.......
05/11/11 at 17:05:38
well, after removing the clutch cover a couple of times and looking a little closer at the clymers manual, i had something in wrong. the oil pump drive gear on the back of clutch hub was on backwards, i think thats why it was hard to crank by hand. after setting up my laptop where my bike was (clymers is on cd) i was able to look, read and put it together instead of going from one room to the other relying on memory. (very short memory)
now for the but part.
the bike does not want to go into gear while it is running. it gives a grinding noise like the clutch is not all the way pulled in.
what i have done: took clutch plates out and cleaned them following the thread by Oldfeller. i did this because my clutch arm didnt fall between the two marks on the side of the motor. now it does. i have tried adjusting the clutch and no luck. i have looked to see if shifter linkage was bent. looked straight to me from what i could tell.
clutch cable maybe?
sorry this thing reads like a novel.
trying to give all the info i can in one shot.

I would think,... if it doesn't "creep" forward in gear at a light, then the problem isn't clutch... more likely shift/linkage...
...but,... that's just my thinkin'...

now does it pull or creep?

Sounds like its way out of adjustment! Shift by hand and make sure there is no restriction on the linkage. Do you have forward controls?

It seems I have clutch when I start it in gear, it just won't go into gear when coming from neutral.

That's normal if you're not rolling... Motorcycle tranny's are different than cars, and do not shift well at a stop..
If it doesn't seem to want to go into gear,... release the clutch and then pull it in again... that usually does the trick...

I think I tried that, but will try again in case I didn't.

First off I want to thank everyone that gave me advice on gettin my bike running and thanks for the advice to get me riding it. After a little more adjusting on clutch and just going for it to put it in gear, I rode it around the block a couple of times to make sure it would shift. Not a problem one. Got some fine tuning to do, and its ready. Will post some pics here shortly. She ain't the prettiest but I'm riding, and that's all that matters to me. Again a big THANK YOU to everyone!!!
