gears not engaging

I have a KZ1000 1A 1977. Electric start works, kick start doesn't. Can't seem to engage any of the gears. What's my problem?

Kick start will only work with the clutch lever released since the gears engage with the clutch basket.

Kawasaki also has a "positive neutral finder". That means only neutral or 1st gear can be selected unless the rear wheel is spinning some.

Later, Doug

Check the clutch.

My fault I let the lever have lots of slack thinking that would work as yest but took cover off and adjusted all good thanks very much for reply.

The first gear neutral was very helpfull as well cheers
