400ex gears catching?

[trailrider894]

Hey guys, i am having a problem. When i shift into gear, it seems to catch a little bit and it doesn't seem very smooth. and sometimes it won't up or down shift until i let the clutch out? And even if i have the clutch pulled all the way in, and you shift into gear, it still catch's. Anyone help is thanked. and the clutch lever and the clutch adjustment at the engine are both adjusted all the way out.

F.Y.I.

I have a new clutch cable, clutch lever, clutch plates, HD Springs. I am running synthetic oil at the moment, but i swapping it out with GN4 tommorow. ( replaced the clutches about 5 rides ago and checked the pressure plate and basket and they looked good.

Probably, like he said-he had the same problem and bought a stock one formt he dealer for liek 20 bucks and no more issues.

hey worst case is it aint the cable and its the gears..but I doubt it.

All you got to lose is maybe 20-30 bucks.
