Sounds to me like you have an air pocket in your coolant system.....with the cap off pick up the front end and you will hear it burp.. add a little coolant and rip it!

Check the brass spacer in basket....many times it gets stuck not allowing the clutch to disengage.

I have some , Ill send you a pm with pics and price.

I had a similar issue recently and found that the bronze bushing on the Clutch center shaft was "Stuck" on the shaft. This doesn't allow proper throw for clutch to disengage. Check it out...may be your culprit.

buy new one.......Only buy OEM but like 110 bucks...

I think I still have a set of front durablue lowering links that I tore off a bike. (I don't like them but someone does) They use same shock distance just move bolt hole higher. Pm if interested. Fuck a ratchet strap...... quickest way to visit your local ER

Also Captain Obvious would say pickup gap.....but no fire on both cyl or minimal if out of adjustment.

My scenario was a bad CDI that would work intermittently. No spark then great spark etc.... If you have a buddy whos got one that you know is good slap it on and see if it improves. There is a Detroit company selling a electronic ignition setup that we are messing with (not a PVL)...stay tuned (only for drag currently)

There are shops out there that will strip/refinish with clear. We have a guy come to our shop with a mobile unit. Check with local body shops may be able to get re-finished fairly reasonable.

Ok some feedback....put on cheap pickup fri night fired 1st kick idled fine runs good.Made one good pass and started breaking up. Thought it was lean so fattened everything up ..same result wot all track breaking up. You can ride and clean it out fine but line up pin it and break up. Anyone got a good oem pickup I can get. Hoping someone has a junk stator with good pickup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

SO this is from 2 years ago but PIA to find VF2 replacement pedals. Also vaguely remember someone making TSS alum or metal ones for use with Alchy that would not eat them up. Cant remember who ...CALLING OG's

My oem stator still good just the pickup broke..I have replaced before on other bikes but with oem pickups off shit stators. Couldn’t find any so had to try something else. I’ll scavenge at the track...someone will have something if what I get won’t work. Just never fun pulling that shit off at the track. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have three coming my way and a three day race in a week. Gonna bring all plus own to the track in case I get misfires...thanks for the input gusto. I’ll let everyone know my feedback as not the first pickup replacement in our banshee world
