2008 ranger crew 700 hard shifting

My ranger crew 700 is hard to shift and gets locked into forward. When trying to shift into reverse we have to shut engine off. Shift then restart. Checked linkage and gears are fine. The RPMs arent really that high but did notice a little improvement when we lowered it. Did notice the throttle cable looks damaged. Could this be the issue?

If the throttle cable is damaged and lowering the throttle helped I would say yes this is an issue.  Lower the idle as low as it can go without stalling and see how it shifts. Should idle at about 800 to 900 max rpm.

Thank you all. We ordered a new throttle cable because it looked like the end was damaged.  When we replaced it though we had trouble getting the RPMs to stay at one setting. They kept jumping all over. Adjust to 900 and would jump to 1000 and 1100. After fighting with it we think we have it now. Seems to be shifting fine now.

      2020 cforce 600 hard to shift
      By richard fischer
      I have a new 2020 cforce 600 touring and read how smooth the shifting was on it. Mine however, sticks in gear quite often and only after moving the bike around does it finally shift. I use the brakes before shifting as it says but that doesn't seem to affect it either way. Anyone have this issue? Is there an adjustment on the linkage perhaps? Any suggestions are appreciated. The machine is new with about 10 miles on it.

      Hello all, I was looking at purchasing a Polaris Ranger 570 full size for my first sxs, any opinions on this? I'm 6 feet 2 inches, wondering if I would fit and drive comfortably in it... 
      Thanks and stay safe..

      Yamaha Big Bear (early 90s?) Engine wont turn.
      By gareth leifheit
      Ive got a Big Bear 350 4x4 that has been sitting for a couple years. It was put away running but now the pull start wont move and the starter wont turn it either. Any ideas what I can lube up or bang around to loosen it up? Thanks

      Yamaha Bruin won't seem to 'move' in Reverse?
      By God of Thunder
      Hello! When I put my Bruin in reverse....reverse light comes on....and the quad backed up. I went forward, and everything was great. Then I tried reverse again, and the light would come on, but the engine would only rev up, it would not move. This has lasted for a couple weeks, then yesterday, when I started it - I tried reverse....and it moved, I moved it forward to try again, and then it refused to move again. I don't know much about these machines (Yamaha) but it seems like even though the reverse light comes on, something isn't telling the bike it's in gear....where should I start with this problem?

      90-03? Kawasaki Lakota 300 Shift Shaft
      By Michael Rogers
      Anyone ever replaced the shifter shaft on one? Not sure on the year but assuming it is in the late 90's. Is it a huge task, splitting the case etc... thinking about buying it as my next project.
       
      Thanks
