I did a full rebuild on the motor, but I didn’t touch the transmission just rinsed it with parts washer.  I put the engine all back together and tried to shift it... the shifter wouldn’t budge.  So I pulled apart the cases again figuring there was a piece of the piston in the tranny, but there was nothing. Now with the cases split I can shift the bike, but the forks kinda bind on the shift drum. Just wondering if I should be able to shift the bike smoothly with the cases split? Only idea would be a bent 1&2 shift fork? Because it tends to bind up going through those gears.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.    Thanks, Jackson</blockquote>
