I'll give all the info I can think of here so the experts can make their best educated guess. Was riding my 2004 450 ES when it apparently decided it no longer liked any other gears than first & reverse. It will not shift past first no matter what I try. The ES moves the shift rod like it's shifting, but alas no 2nd on up. Tried to shift it manually with my trusty 12mm wrench, whis seems to have full movement, but it will not click into 2nd. First, neutral, and reverse is no problem, but anything else.....forget about it. I tried to adjust the clutch which seems to have zero affect on anything. I say that cause I first tried the "correct" setting which I found here(thank god for this forum), tried to make it too tight, too loose & it had no change in shifting OR clutch engagement at any setting. Any ideas on what the problem may be and how much I can expect to pay to get it fixed? My heart is broken right now(much like my beloved 4 wheeler) & I need honest opinions, good or bad.
