Dude...I did not ask for your condescension. I asked a simple question. I want to learn about how these bikes work and the best way I know to learn is to ask those with more experience. However, my lack of experience does not mean I am an idiot. There are three major points in your narcissistic...

Very helpful in trying to save me money, however you did not actually propose a solution to the problem you basically just said, no its not that its this other thing. Useful but not actually helpful because now I have to ask, How do you adjust it to be fully disengaged? So you weren't actually...

Thanks for the info, No I do not have the manual. I will look on ebay for one asap.

You really just fill it up about 3/4 full, if you are working on the brakes and have just bled them you will need to add more after that process. Don't fill it all the way up because as you use them the levels will fluctuate. There is a line in some master cylinders that will show you but they...

So to clarify, since you would rather lecture than give a straight answer. I need to loosen the clutch cable? Since it would not be fully DISengaging even when the lever is all the way out correct?

I appreciate the info and your "rant" is very applicable. amc does not seem to understand that this forum is not here just for him to feel high and mighty about all his knowledge.

You know I just wanted the advice, like "oh you need to adjust it! its not slipping its this other thing! Cheers" Not "I know stuff so stfu peon!"

So I have a 1978 cb750k and I notice the clutch doesn't fully engage ( is what it feels like), and when I shift it, I have to almost kick it into gear because if I just lift normally it just grinds. This seems like a clutch issue to me and I saw that the friction plate kits are not crazy...

I got it all sorted out thanks for all the advice.

Just to let you know, I did what the other posters said and checked continuity...There was a load wire that had rusted loose and was making contact with a ground. I found it by testing voltages on the various grounds. SO get rekt asshole.

If I don't find continuity that would mean the wire is disconnected or corroded correct?

See the reason I posted on here was because I want to learn how to do it and don't have the money to pay someone $1000 plus dollars to fix this bike. I am aware I don't know what I'm doing. I am also aware of how electricity works my problem is that I don't know how all the components on this...

I will attempt this thanks for giving me a starting point.

here is the wire, it is the one disconnected this is the left side while on the bike i;m not sure why the picture is sideways
