That's a pushrod motor, so it's really easy to just change the head, rather than use a Helicoil. Your call.

Why do you need to change the swingarm bushings? Is there excessive play? If so, can you take up the slack by tightening the nut?

I thought the 163fml was an overhead cam and 169fml was pushrod. I need to change bushings as theres play in swing arm when move it side to side and bearings in wheel are fine.

That is a genuine pushrod clone.

Put the bike on a stand, remove the rear wheel and get a real sense of how the swingarm is. My guess is that the nut is loose. I use two shallow nuts and torque them together.

That's good to know about the engine in case need parts and there's play wete bolt goes threw bushing ill have to double check if it warms up today.

Got the shift lever and bike won't shift into any gear any ideas btw clutch handle is really firm.

Weldangrind 03-14-2014 06:47 PM

Your clutch cable requires lubrication and possibly adjustment.

stretch8668 03-14-2014 07:02 PM

I hope its just adjustment I can see "arm" move when press lever in. What kind of adjustments should I do and how should clutch feel like

stretch8668 03-15-2014 10:44 AM

Update: adjusted clutch and can feel it shift up and down with hand but neutral light stays on and still won't move I think clutch won't disengage am I right or what else could it be and how do I solve it.

Weldangrind 03-15-2014 01:11 PM

Are you trying this with the engine running or off?

stretch8668 03-15-2014 02:28 PM

Engine runningand can feel it go into gear with hand regardless if clutch is pressed or not and bike still moves freely while in gear

Weldangrind 03-16-2014 12:18 AM

Try disconnecting the cable at the engine end, and kick it in to gear with the engine off. Can you still roll the bike back and forth? If not, the clutch cable is likely seized. If so, you have an internal clutch problem or a transmission problem.

stretch8668 03-16-2014 09:36 AM

I did as u said yesterday and it still rolled in first and second I'm gonna go outside today when it warms up and see if anything is loose or what's broken

stretch8668 03-16-2014 11:16 AM

How will I know if its the clutch any way to tell by looking at it

Well I took the clutch cover off as it was a mildly 30° out today and got some bad news that I'm hoping is an easy fix. I noticed that the clutch is fine but there's a bolt that came out (look at bottom of case) which im assuming goes in hole to right as its threaded and the one directly above it is loose also. I know this cause the star shaped piece near shift fork wiggles when move it. Unfortunately I can't do anything til take clutch off and piece next to it. Also when I drained oil say lots of tiny metalic pieces in oil but no slivers in filter screen so I'm hoping its an easy fix and nothings messed up.
