If you're running the stock clutch slave cylinder, the seals probably failed.  Do you see any brake fluid underneath the clutch slave?

Is it locked in gear?

No I'm not stuck in a gear.  I can shift in and out of 4th and 5th.  There's just nothing else including neutral.

I would still check under the left side cover. You have to start somewhere.

I'd ride or drive back the way you came and see if they are on the road.























Sorry, someone had to say it.
