1999 Yamaha v star 650 won't shift into first gear, the neutral light turns off but still won't engage, the light turns off like it's engaged but it won't move and I can take my hand off the clutch and still idles
I couldn't give you a straight answer because I don't have enough info, but I can ask you to answer a few diagnostic questions: 1) Does the bike go "CLUNK" when you go through the motions to shift it into first? 2) Does the drive shaft spin when you let the clutch out after you've gone through the motions to put it into first? I hope you've solved your problem, since it's been 8 months since this was posted and that's a really long time to go without your ride. =(I couldn't give you a straight answer because I don't have enough info, but I can ask you to answer a few diagnostic questions:
