Hi,

Was wondering if any members could steer me in the right direction.

I'm hoping to find someone in the pacific northwest that could take a look at a 1970 CT70H that's having issues shifting into 3rd and 4th gear.

Thanks in advance. Much appreciated!

Thanks for the comments. I was planning on waiting until post - pandemic before taking it somewhere. Was hoping to at least get a dialogue going with a local mechanic. Would like to have it ready to ride this summer. Fingers crossed.

I agree with OC, but what have you done to try and correct the problem? Someone here could probably talk you through it and save you some coin. If you need a rebuild, you came to the right place. Plenty of help here.

@cjpayne, I like the diy method and would be willing to give it a try. Are there any videos or shop manuals to help get started?

The troubleshooting steps I've done are adjust the clutch as much as the adjustment screw would allow, and visually check to make sure nothing was bent or out of place (external only). Nothing looked off. I've got a restored H bike and was using that as a reference point.

Tell us more about this bike. How many miles are on the engine? Has it ever been gone thru that you know of?
If the miles are high, you may need a full rebuild. If they aren't too high, and you're lucky, there could be a fix under the right side engine/clutch cover.

In the Resources/Links section of this forum, there are some downloadable shop and parts manuals that will help. There's also some wiring diagrams there. Youtube has some videos too.

Hello, thank you for the info. I was able to locate a local Honda mechanic to take a look at it. It's in the queue to get worked on. Hope it will be back on the road this summer.
