JasonR Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 So I let a few friends ride my Banshee at Pismo a couple of weekends ago...and I think my clutch wen t out. The transmission shifts fine, but it seems like the clutch isn't engaging the flywheel. It basically feels like I'm in neutral in every gear. How hard is it to replace the clutch? Should I get a stock or performance clutch? What parts do I need...? Me and a friend of mine are pretty mechanically incline and work on lots of vehicles... The banshee is all stock...waiting on toomey pipes and some other shiat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel3190 Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Pm jeff on here FASTOYS he'll hook you up with a set of clutches,his clutches are no doubt the BEST you can buy,only thing that will make it better is to run a lockup with his clutches,but for your motor just his clutches should be fine,he gives you the fibers and steels and 6 HD springs only other thing you might need is some new o rings that go on the fibers,it took me about 45 min. to do it just piddlin around.

Bansh-eman Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 you can replace your clutch very easily.. get you self a manual and it will walk you through step by step.. the clucth he suggested is a little bit over kill for what you got going on but if you plan on hopping that baby up one day you might as well buy it now instead of wasting your money two times to get another clutch.. as far as the lockup goes you wont need that thing until your putting out some really nice hp... i talked to jeff at FAST and he said theres really not much of a need until your in the high 90's.. get your self a nice heavy duty race clutch and youll be straight.

Animalman294 Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 He's so damn busy right now, it may take him a little while to get back to you but the wait will be worth it. With his clutch you will not have to worry about it slippin', just ride and enjoy................. :beer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 you might need is some new o rings that go on the fibers If you put Orings back in with Jeff's clutch you did it wrong. Those O Rings are for the OEM clutch only, and they are supposed to cut down chatter. NO aftermarket clutch uses them. Jeff is out of town for the week, riding in Idaho...I talked to him last week on Tuesday when he shipped out my Dyna. He is very responsive...but keep in mind, when he returns he's gonna have a weeks worth of PMs to sort though. After beating on his clutch all last year with my stock motor, T5 pipes and a few bolt ons, it still looked brand new when I tore my motor down and built my cub. With 84.8 HP at the rear wheels, his clutch didn't slip at all on a dyno. Since that dyno, I added 35PWKs, a Nology Coil, Dyna CDI and I'm probably going to get some RDZ pipes...which should put me roughly at about 95ish or so. I can't wait to see how his clutch holds up to that. I should mention, as well...when I built this motor I put a new basket, inner and outer hub in as well....
