My 84 200X, won't shift right. What happens is the shift lever feels flimsy and isn't catching any of the gears. When ever I try to shift up or down the lever won't come back to the center. Like I said it just flops around. When I'm riding, I can hit first gear, shift into second but when shifting into third, I have to really play with the lever with my foot to make it go into gear. It is also impossible to find neutral. My local shop told me that this was a common problem and could be fixed by taking off the case cover and clutch and replacing a spring that is more then likely broken? Is this a common problem with these 200Xs and what is the most likely thing causing this loose shifting problem?
PS, the clutch works fine and is adjusted correctly.
