HI
I just bough my first bike, a 04 Gpx250. Owned it and have been riding it for about a week. The Previous owner had not changed the chain in quite a while. I ordered a new one and in the mean time i though i would give the current one a good clean and lube. I took the front sprocket cover off and gave it a good clean with some kerosene and a old paintbrush. Now no matter what i try i cannot get the bike into fist gear. It will go into second, (and then no other because of the safety) But i cannot get it to go past neutral into first. I have tried changing the angle of the shift leaver but nothing seems to help.
