Hello
My son scored a free Moto4 - late 80s from the looks of it. I don't know anything else about its history as the owner wasn't there when i picked it up. Can't see the VIN number as its a bit rusty. He cleaned the carb and then with some either it started and still starts first pull. Its runs really nice - not rattles etc. Goes forwards well and the brakes work fine so it looks like a keeper, However, we have only managed to get it into reverse once.
1) it won't shift down into what seems like where first would be - 2nd and upwards only. The changes between gears is fine. No crunching or missed gears - just no first gear. 2nd gears appears to be as low as it will go
2) the clutch - when you hold the gear lever up or down works (only the second ATV we have had. Other is a Quadrunner which doesn't have this feature)
3) no neutral light - will start when no in neutral - should it do that?
4) the one time we did get it into reverse the neutral and then the red (reverse) lights worked. Swapped easy between forward and reverse - when it went into second, it didn't return to first or neutral
5) checked the clutch adjust on the RHS - seemed fine to me. When i turned the screw back 1/8 it was where it was to start with. Clutch doesn't slip. The bike will move forward is all gears.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Andrew
