    83 250r wont shift into 5th all the way?

    bought it blown up. new top end, crank and rod bearings. blah blah. the trans gave me problems when putting it all back together. i did turn it and test all of the gears before i put it in the bike tho. everything SEEMED fine.

    heat cycles and all done i took it for its maiden ride. 1st thru 4th are fine. altho 1st 2 neutral seems to be like a full shift causing me to have to shift twice to hit second. same for second to first. fifth it will shift up and then nothing. neutral. i can feel it click up and engage and then pop right out. if i fiddle with it and HOLD it up it stays in fifth but it takes a lot of force.

    i have too much time into this motor already. please tell me i dont have to split my cases...

    in this pic from the manual my part # 7 does not look the same. it only has a few teeth on it. its not a whole gear. i assumed that it was just a change done to the 83-84 models. a previous post about a shift problem i read makes me think i didnt line the 2 parts up right?

    HELP?
