Last week I picked up this bike for my niece and it needed a few things, a shift lever being one of them. So I ordered the lever and the 'shift change shaft return spring' (#92144 below).
Problem is I dont know how the spring fits in place unless it belongs inside the case. I can put it around the shaft and it just dangles there.
Is this an internal spring? If it is then cool, I'll disregard.

Ok, the spring goes on the shaft as in the drawing and then is put over the tab sticking out of the arm on the shaft. The crocked part of the spring goes on the right side and the straight goes on the left side.

Okay, so it's internal, inside the cases.
It has to be.
This is the 2nd time I have been deceived by these exploded view drawings. Coming from an engineering background and having spent some time working with CAD programs I am not liking the way they draw them.
I just went through this on my WR and the water pump. When you look at that drawing it shows the 2 shaft seals right next to each other, but doesn't show that their is an aluminum case between the two, just like here.
Seems to me they should show that.
Thanks for the quick reply Paw Paw.

Hahahaha, I meant the spring, but yes.... bet it's hotttttttttttt

Again with the heat!!! What's wrong with you ppl. It's a dry heat.

I have never seen that spring inside the case halves. The entire asssembly slides in with just the clutch cover removed.
PawPaw has the orientation described above. -BIG DAN

That what I meant, inside as opposed to external.

I got this little thing running, but it doesn't want to shift into 3rd.
Who here knows anything about these little automatics?

Dry heat or not I'd be drenched in sweat in 5 minutes, then I would probably spontaneously combust and dry out in 5 seconds then sweat then burn

Nah, it evaporates before you feel it. That’s how the dehydration gets you.

 

[PALMER84ONE]

We ever figure this out?

 

[Trfsrfr]

Not yet.
I dug into it online though and have a pretty decent idea of what I'll be looking at, and looking for when I get into it. I think it's the linkage that connects to the drum.
Its a money thing right now. I have some big bills that come due in Nov, and then Xmas is right there, so I'm thinking 2018.
Between this and the 2 YZ's, and the Shadow, and the CR, and the WR lately....

Would you like to add an 1987 1400 Intruder to the list?
