Worn or bent gear selector.
SOURCE: bike runs in neutral but cuts out when a gear is selected.
Your sidestand switch kills the engine if the bike is put in gear with the sidestand down. If your stand is up and this is happening either the switch is broken or out of position. If it is broken you can twist the wires together until you can replace the switch. If it is just bent out of position you can bend it back carefully.
SOURCE: i have a 1996 kx 250 that will not select 4th gear
Selecter forks could be damaged, gear shift shaft bent, return spring faulty, clutch dragging maybe! Try rocking it backwards and forwards engine off and see if you can find that gear! Good Luck - The Yeti
SOURCE: gear shift moves up and down wont select gears .
You have an internal problem with the shift mechanism.You will need to remove the clutch cover to identify what is broken.It is rare that you can't fix a problem such as this from behind the clutch cover.(ie no need to split the crankcase).pull of the clutch cover & look to see if when you try to select gears if the selector drum turns. It should then be apperent what has gone wrong.(circlip fallen off,selector drum actuator or spring broken)
If you find something broken you need to find all broken pieces before it goes back together so it/they don't find there way into the gearbox or BANG your gearbox will go.
Hope this helps

could be clutch,but check for bent shifter lever or adjustment. Indicator switch could be faulty but you would see it more with neutral light coming on false. If you bang gears (power shift ) or clutchless shift the dog could be bad also
