Hey all have a 1982 KE125 here. My son was riding it the other day, rode fine for about 4 hours. Went to ride it again the next day and when put in gear nothing. Would not move was like it was in neutral. Had a look at it today and if back wheel is off the ground it spins but when trying to get it to move in any gear it wont. Checked to make sure it was actually in gear and it was. Not sure what is causing it if you have any ideas i would appreciate the help

Thanks

 

Check your clutch cable adjustment. Welcome to KF and let us know how this progresses.

 

How did you check that it was in gear? the clutch could be bad or slipping, check the adjustment and let us know from there.

Welcome to KF!

 

Sounds like a clutch problem

 

When I had the back wheel off the ground it would go into gear as well as accelerate when throttle applied. With wheel on the ground no drive no power to the wheel.

Thanks for your replies and any other ideas you can give me

ok, you have verified that the clutch is not engaging properly.

 

which means either a poor adjustment or a bad clutch.

 

hahaha prom nice catch, yeah that is what I was referring to. lol

 

ok well i replaced the clutch lever before this happened. could it just be a bad adjustment? the clutch worked perfectly fine before that

 

Yup, try adjusting the clutch cable and let us know how it goes. Good luck!
