Problem with the gear shift on my 2002 883R, not returning after changing gear. With a delicate 'half nudge' of the boot I can return it to the centered position & make the next shift (not easy in heavy touring boots!) but obviously not a good idea to carry on like that.
I had a look at parts drawings and it appears there are 2 springs associated with the mechanism on shifter shaft, and one on the 'detent' mechanism. Which one's it likely to be, or is there some other harder to reach part I haven't considered?
I haven't found a picture that shows how much these parts are hidden by the clutch; will I need to borrow the clutch puller for this?
Any advice on this would be much appreciated but I'll get on & drain the oil/remove primary cover.
