fastcar01 Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Do the easy pull levers work OK wiht a Banshee? I am having a problem with mine not wanting to fully disengae teh clutch. I went as far as to give the center clutch adjuster a 1/2 turn and still doens;t seem to want to fully disengage. Now my stock lever never had this problem. My bnasket is grooved a little, but not sure what is considered bad, plus like I say the stock lever never had this problem. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 A new cable and EZ pull lever and perch are nice. Yes, they significantly ease clutch pull. A little bit of grooving is gonna happen, more than that, time for a new basket. The new lever and perch clean up a lot of the BS, parking brake, etc. A new cable is 12 bucks or so. However, as long as the pushrod is adjusted right in the clutch, and you have the cable adjusted properly (should have about 1/8 of an inch of freeplay at the ball end of the lever when the bike is cold)...that's about all you can do. If it still doesn't disengage, might be basket time. Sorry...Dale, just reread that. Check both ends of the cable...make sure neither is kinked, bent, frayed, etc. Or...if it's more than a few years old, buy a new one. Also, did you just get the lever, or the whole perch? The lever might not seat up as well in the stock perch...dunno. I bought a perch and lever together at Magic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastcar01 Posted August 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 New lever/perch, cable, and clutch (frictions/steels/springs). I adjusted it just how you are supposed to, then it that did not work good, I thightened the ball adjuster (in the clutch) a little. Not sure how thatis going to hold up, but I guess its worth a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 YOu didn't reuse the rubber cushions from the stock clutch with the new one, by chance...did you? I mean the large rubber o Rings that were in the inner diameter of the friction plates? With the cable removed, you should be able to push the clutch arm on under the left carb with slight pressure, and the arrows should line up. If they're not lined up...you may have problems. Hope you greased up the ball bearing while you had it apart as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastcar01 Posted August 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 Dave, You know what those Orings were not in my clutch. What would happen without thexe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajogejr Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 That's OK, you don't need them :beer: That's what I was getting at... Stock clutch from Yamaha uses them to "cut down" chatter. No aftermarket clutch that I know of uses 'em. I think something is misaligned or not put back together right...and I don't think it's the fault of the Ezpull lever and perch...
