    Got my bike running pretty well, and decided to ride it around the block to see how it goes... Started it up, pulled the clutch, and the thing made a noise like its unwinding. What the heck is that??? Sounded like a big, metal coil unwinding. Not surprisingly, the bike wouldn't shift into gear, either.

    Can someone tell me what the deal is?

    So close... so close...

    Never mind. Clutch cable was too tight... Swing arm was pulled to far into the clutch. I loosened it, and voila!
