My ford bantam 1300 doesn't want to select 3rd gear

this manual transmission?
seems. so
the tip of shift levers love to get worn and not allowing the shift rail forks to hit 3rd gear.
a pure simple mechanical failure and is shifter tip end parts bad, some are even made of plastic.
or
3rd gear synchro- ring is super worn out and the main clutch drags. (seen it and fixed them)
if clutch has master cylinder is the fluid always at top line or drops in time every weak.

What would cause a grinding noise that whenever u put it in gear will not move

A grinding noise when you put the motorcycle into gear and it doesn't move could indicate several issues with the final drive on your Suzuki Intruder. Some possible causes are:
  1. Worn or damaged clutch: The clutch may not be engaging properly, preventing power from reaching the rear wheel. A worn or damaged clutch can cause a grinding noise when you try to shift into gear.
  2. Faulty gear: The gears inside the final drive may be worn or damaged, preventing them from meshing together properly. This can cause a grinding noise when you try to shift into gear.
  3. Low or contaminated gear oil: Low or contaminated gear oil can cause excessive wear on the gears inside the final drive, leading to a grinding noise and reduced performance.
  4. Failed final drive: A failed final drive can cause a grinding noise and prevent power from reaching the rear wheel.
If you are not familiar with motorcycle repair, it is recommended to take the bike to a qualified mechanic to diagnose and fix the issue.

2006 BMW R1200GS - whilst riding no noise but when I close the throttle it makes a grinding sound. It goes away when I pull in the clutch. It is a tyoe of revolving grinding noise.

May be broken snap ring which keeps gears in proper position, but since you posted this in the wrong category, don't expect many answers.

My 97 ford exlorer will not go into gear except when I put it in 4 wheel low. transmission has been making a popping noise for a while.

If it won't go into gear, sounds like you've run out of transmission fluid. That grinding sound when you turn the shaft by hand, sounds like you've run it for a bit too long without fluid and wore the gears down. Start it up and check the trans fluid with dipstick. If none on stick, put some in it. You may have already ruined the transmission though. But you never know. Try putting fluid in. Might work.(for a while)

2004 hyundai sant fe clutch makes grinding/whining noise when trying to shift gears. Just replaced the clutch 2 years ago. 107,000 miles

Does clutch grind or does it grind as you put into gear? If as you put into gear then , Transmission needs new sycros.

BMW 316i 1997 Handbrake jumps back down when applied.

the rachet and lock on the handbrake handle itself is faulty and either needs 'loooking' at or replacing. leave the car in gear in addition to the handbrake to make sure ur car doesnt do a runner while u are waiting for repairs.
