05 400ex Wont shift or turn over

[Exrider434]

ive got a 05 400ex and the other day i was out riding and it quit running...:grr: I then found out that my dad forgot to put oil in, but there is still lots of oil in the engine..:huh It wont shift but it feels like it wants to but it wont. When i hit the start button it clicks but wont turn over the motor.:confused: Right now i have the head off and im working on getting top end off..:blah: Any help would be great...
Thanks, Adam

HAHAHA, He means exactly what he says, it will not shift, will not change gears.

Common Sense.

It may have seized. You might try this. Take off the head and try to drive the piston down. Use a block of wood and a hammer. Good luck, it does not sound good.
