Crankcases assembled but can't select gears

(1/7) > >>

ebmbiker:
Hello again folks,

I've got my crankcases assembled, no top end on. When I rotate the input shaft by hand and use the gear shift lever, it won't shift through the gears. The selector drum only rotates a small amount. The shafts rotate easily and the output shaft is engaged and rotating.

Any ideas?

Oddjob:
Did you assemble in the top case or bottom case?

I assembled in the top case. I'm using the Haynes manual.

Is your engine on the bench or in your bike?
If it's on the bike is the lever unimpeded?
