Stu Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 Welcome to the forumDo you get any clutch drag when holding the clutch in with it in gear? Sounds like it could be warped clutch plates Quote

Snod Blatter Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 When did you last change the oil and what did you put in it? Quote
fastbob Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 Worn selector forks would be my guess . Not a difficult job because it has a horizontally split crank case . You might be able to ignore the Haynes manual and take a few shortcuts such as leaving the Clutch basket and rotor in place . Here's an interesting video that I came upon that will give you some idea what's involved . Pity it's speeded up . https://www.howtomotorcyclerepair.com/cb550bottomendrebuild/ Quote
