New to me Blast with 1200 miles and clutch cable was adjusted all the way out. SO- did the primary adjustment 1st using the recommended method found here, drained the primary and refilled with 20w50 syn oil, did the clutch adjustment (again, using the recommended method found here), buttened the bike up and took it for a spin. At first, couldn't get it to shift to 2nd, a few minutes later it would shift to 2nd but not 3rd, then a few minutes later I could get it to go through 1st, 2nd and 3rd but could not get it to shift higher at all.. I did ride it when I 1st got it Mon but the clutch was so far out of adjustment, I don't think I ever went any higher than 3rd then- what is my next step? Could it be the new fluid just needs to get into the plates? Thanks for any help
