Could of snapped the friction plate buddy, gearbox is easy to change. Just remember to pull the pin outa the clutch fork before you seperate the box from the engine. Theres a blanking plate with an allen key hole just to the left of the starter motor as your looking down, take that off then you will be able to feel the fork pin inside. You need to screw a bolt into the fork pin then use the bolt to yank it out. Hopefully just your clutch gone but if the clutch is fine give me a shout, I've got a bugeye box going if needed.
