    on the vl check the clutch fluid. on the vn check the clutch cable adjustment. u probably already have but ya gotta start with the basics. but they dont usually just stop working were there any sighns of a clutch prob?

    yea there was i put a post up about it somewhere i think like i was driving it for a bit and you change gears and the clutch would just hold and you give it accelerator and she just slowly builds up speed but still pushing really high revs so id say it was slipping had a fiddle with the cable adjustment but not to sure wta i was doing down thee and still no improvement on making the car go anywhere?? could someone tell me how to adjust the cable properly to see if i can get it working??
