    So I finally have my bike running again! Now it won’t go anywhere in any gear! I have a new cable so it’s not that but it does look like the carb is stopping it going all the way?

      Sorry but what?

      It steps into gear, but the bike literally doesn't move?

      The clutch isn't disengaging in that case.

      You need to adjust the clutch actuation arm.

        @declan 1998

        @Calum does that involve emptying my new gear oil and removing the cover?😭
        Yes goes into gear moves ever so slightly but not much!

          @ricky0115 so the carb stops the arm from returning to the original position? That would cause the issue but no idea how the carb could be in the way

            @declan confirmed carb is not in the way, actuator arm seats as it hits the carb

              So the clutch actuator arm sits on a little holder that fixes perpendicular to the base of the cylinder, far far away from the carb.

              Can you get a photo up.

              If the clutch is fully disengaged, and there is no power to the wheel, then the clutch isn't being disengaged properly. Which means either adjusting the clutch perch, actuator or yes taking the clutch cover off and adjusting the clutch dowel.

                  @ricky0115 Nah that looks good to me.

                  Yes, the clutch plates must go back in a specific order.

                  I describe the order in the kick start tutorial.
