Shifting issues

Medic2433 · 03-15-2025, 05:32 PM

So I started and rode my hawk 250 X for the first time no issues. My 2024 even actually has a section on the instrument cluster that shows what gear I am in. Now, I can only shift up or down once from neutral and it only shows the neutral light… no other gears, and I can’t shift above second gear. I adjusted the clutch lever slightly before I seemed to have found this issue. Did this cause this or does anyone have any ideas what’s going on. Brand new to motorcycles in general and only rode it 30 minutes. I emptied the oil it shipped with and put brand new oil in before I even ran it. Thanks!!!

make sure you have free play at clutch handle and down on right cover also try shifting up w/o engine running rock the bike back and forth and try shift it up by hand also could be stuck clutch plates but highly doubt it
