same thing happened to my truck recently- had all the makings of a shot slave cylinder but the dealership dropped the tranny and said the transfer case (think thats waht they said- it was 3 weeks ago)
and the cluster gear were shot and the whole thing needed to be replaced.
Usually if you can engage the clutch but can’t get it into gear its a tranny issue rather than a clutch issue- if the clutch is going it gets spongy then usually just sort of goes- it won’t let you into or out of gear at all.
I’m not a bike mechanic but usually the basic mechanics of how a clutch/tranny interlock are the similar issue so I would say tranny before clutch- but thats a limited knowledge… although I totally agree Gary here riding it is a baaaaad idea.
my truck was still ‘running’ and functioning in theory (R was impossible- 1st was tough I did do a number of starts from 2nd just to get me home)… but I don’t want to get stranded and I didn’t want to damage anything further or put more strain on an older engine (174xxx) so it went straight into the shop- good thing cause it was shot to hell and needed replacing immediately. Now if they would only efffing actually fix it!!!!!
when things go mechanically wrong usually its best to have them checked out right away- waiting often damages more parts and with your life depending on your baby I’d get it fixed asap before trusting my life to it- but I try to accept as little risk as possible so thats my moto to keep me as unstranded as possible.
