XXDEF1ANTXX Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 For the third time, I have managed to shear the studs on my inner hub. The first I over tightened and the 2nd two I tightened to spec at 7 ftlbs. Why does this keep happening to me haha. Mods are: Stock Motor w/ Vito's SS pistons Gnarleys Rad Valves Stock Sprockets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 I think it's a lot less then 7 ftlbs. I think it's actually inchlbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheerider11 Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 I don't know. I just kind of go by hand. I know there not backing off, they have the spring holding tension against them. Are you sure your torque wrench is calibrated right? I send mine back to the snap on guy every few months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87sheerips Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Do it by hand with a small 10mm wrench or 1/4" 10mm socket at most. Just hand tight with loctite man they snap so easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXDEF1ANTXX Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Is the Hinson or Wiseco inner hubs compatible with the stock basket and pressure plate? Are the aftermarket ones even any more durable thank OEM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKheathen Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 from the looks, you successfully installed and ran that motor before sheering. once installed properly and adjusted, there actually should not be a load on those studs, well not tortional, just the spring pressure. the load of the hub/plate is through the mating splines. find out why you are not carying the load ther, like mis-alligned. you can actually put them on wrong. one way will mate, and the next bolt hole over will not line up on the splines. if the splines are trashed, it might let it sip up on the studs, but i have yet to see that. if the clutch is adjusted even near to correctly/useable range it shouldn't let it extend far enough to be an issue. you only have the stock 7-plate setup, right?

XXDEF1ANTXX Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Yea, I was riding it gently and this happened when I let the clutch out to accelerate after a turn. Also I would like to add in that my ring gear on my basket is loose. Almost like the cusions are completely shot. Could that have anything to do with it? I havnt yet bought a new clutch kit yet and before I do I would like to know why this is happening, hopefully the collective know how of bhq can help. This is the second time this has happend. First time was trying to move up a hill after I stalled it because I had to slam on the brakes while climbing. Some guy came took the corner at the top to go down and didnt hear me hauling ass up the hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXDEF1ANTXX Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 And yes, stock 7 plate setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppedupandcutdown Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Are you sure the splines are engaging when you put them together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Madd Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Are you sure the splines are engaging when you put them together? If not, the clutch would be fully engaged all the time. The bike wouldn't even move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppedupandcutdown Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 If not, the clutch would be fully engaged all the time. The bike wouldn't even move. Yea, you're right. I thought of that later,sure think it must of spun. I'd be interestd in what has caused this, I've burped those bolts down with a 3/8 impact countless times and never broke one.

XXDEF1ANTXX Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Is there a possible way that the pressure plate could spin free from the hub? Thats the only thing i can think of that would shear the studs like that. Maybe the pressure plate wasnt in the grooves on the inner hub? This doesnt seem to be a problem that happens often. Another thing I thought of was maybe I didnt put the 6 bolts in far enough and they caught on the cover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
