Now just been out for little test ride went into gear up and down easy helps if I blip throttle . And there's resistance on kick start

When you select 1st gear it shouldn't drag you forwards at all and you should be able to put it back into neutral. If not you will need to screw the cable adjuster out. If you run out of adjustment, screw it all the way in, disconnect the nipple and move it up 1/4" or so.

Slippery slope changing cables. It's like a stack of dominoes. Last time I did one I finished up taking a bare frame to be blasted.

I can believe that Martin, I keep thinking about the utube clip you posted in another thread with the little kid trying to close the cupboard doors. Exactly the same for me, fix one thing and then discover another two in the process and so on add infinitum
