Splitting cases on 350x

I am having trouble getting the shift assembly together. I followed the steps in the manual and have the plungers, springs and pawls on the shifter in the guide plate. I am trying to tighten the bolts to get the pawls inside the drum but even with the grooves in the drum lined up with the pawls, the pawls hit the rim of the drum and will not go inside.

I assume you tried compressing the ratchet pawls, and then sliding the assembly into the shift drum?

Shep figured it out. The two holes in the drum shifter for the plunger springs had plungers stuck in them upside down.

Well, I finished assembling the motor tonight and have a sinking feeling in my stomach. I am 99% sure I did everything correctly but it does not seem to be bench shifting correctly, at all. I cant get it to stay in 1st, it jumps back to neutral. Then when I shift up to 2nd the countershaft still spins freely like its in neutral. Its not until I shift to what should be 3rd that the countershaft stops spinning. Unless anyone has had this happen before I am going to tear it back down and split the cases again.

Since nobody could help me with that question Ill try another one.
I tore the motor back down but can not get the R shift fork to go low enough to get in line with it's groove and I assembled the trans like the manual said.
Anyone?

Take the shift fork shaft out of it's hole in the case with the forks still in between the gears where they go then swing the fork knob into the shift drum and wiggle the shift fork shaft back down into the case hole. That's how I did my 250R.

Thanks. I think I got it.

I spotted these cracks in the bearing retainer today during assembly 2.0.
I ordered a new one so I am delayed at least another 4 days.

Which of these clutch cover gaskets is correct?

The second one, theres a small flat square filter that slides in that area (get one if your missing it)

After looking again its odd, looks like one gasket is open on top side of filter other is open at bottom srea of the filter.
Thought i had the answer but i guess i dont, sorry

Motor is in. I plan to mount the 400ex exhaust and nerf bars this weekend.

It took about 2 hours to mount the 400ex exhaust. It was very easy. I only made one cut and welded in a 1 5/8" piece of tube for an extension. It is almost ready to try to start.

First ride!
