Want to thank you guys for your help 

Got it it up and running again now back apart waiting on intake manifold boot it split apart 

But just for my thoughts and info 

What is the best oil to use and what's the best spark plus to use as well I have to give it a tune up 

Guys I'm at a heading shaking my head at things now so 

If I take a jump wire from the brown wire from bike side and add a jump wire to the red wire on key switch side my start button works all lights bike starts up .

Why is adding power from red wire bike side to brown wire from key side making the start button work someone plz help me with this you don't have to have key on I'm so so lost I just want to ride

I cleaned up some plugs that had dirty and oil in them 

If I play with the light switch the starting relying clicks I walked away for a minute came back head and tail lights where on start button worked turned off the kill switch a few times came back on now I have nothing again what the hell is going on 

Thanks guys so when the lights flicker the starting cut off relay clicks as well checked all grounds cleaned them all up and still no starting but push button  CDI was checked its good 

so could the cut off relay be bad ?

Ok so little update I been riding it without air box hose to carb off and forget to put air filter back in could this be the stalling problem to much air 

Now new problem went to go start it no power to key no head lights fix a broken wire RED POWER wire fix that and the lights come on but still won't start with button then all of a sudden the lights flicked and heard a clicking noise from starting circuit cut off relay  now I have no lights again  what could the problem be 

put new key switch on and new headlight / start button on still nothing and new starting relay   help lol

Sorry for the late reply. 

So I took everything off again both case covers because when I took off the clutch cover I forgot to install the reverse cable bracket to case fixed that and everything is working again 

But now I'm having a stalling problem  riding in 1st and 2nd no problem as soon as I put it in 3rd and give it throttle is bogs down and starts to stall 

Could it be air/ fuel mix need adjustment?

Starting it takes about 20 minutes with holding the start button 

Gwbarm,

That's the thing I don't know how to line up the shift cam star looking thing with the shifter shaft where the blue arrows are in the pictures  do I put the clip looking thing with blue arrow  on the points ??

Thanks for the response 

It's a 5 speed manual  pics are what I replaced  

Can anyone help

Hey I have a 1997 big bear 350 4x4

I replaced the shifter shaft and the shift arm linkage and the rod when I installed them all I was unaware that you had to line the dot on the shifter shaft with the gap on the linkage arm gap put it all back  together and rode it I can't get it to shift in the right gears  I can move the shift cam by hand and goes in different gears but with the shifter shaft in it riding I can't put it in R or N 

Anyone know how to line up the shifter shaft and the shift cam s
