NO is seems like it will shift into 1st and 2nd , But still nothing when letting out on clutch Lever ...if it was clutch wouldn't it still go into gear like clutch lever released ????

if the clutch lever is adjusted to tight the the clutch will not hold
for test purposes adjust the cable to have about 3/8 inch free play.

I'll throw out another idea, are there any noises coming from the bike when you let out the clutch in gear with engine running? If the driveshaft to final drive coupling splines were gone you would have no drive but a normal feel to the clutch lever. Probably have some noise in the rear area though with the splines/coupling slipping??? Just guessing here.

You said the dealership quoted $4000 to repair. Did they tell you what the failure was along with the repair estimate?

Ah crap man, that's bad luck for the ol' camo girl. It sounds more transmission than clutch to me. I've had transmission issues and have gone through the rocket right of passage of removing engine and doing transmission rebuild. $4k is probably a ballpark to remove the engine and do a transmission rebuild. The fact that you can select 1,2 but not other gears is interesting suggesting to me it's not the transmission damper.

Check the detent spring first. You may be lucky and that's all it is.
