202banshee Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Been trying to get this clutch right for a week now. When I had it apart to adjust it I didnt notice any grooves in basket. The clutches are suppose to be new. The guy I got it from just had in a shop to have them replaced. I did notice that when you pull the clutch the pressure plate comes outward unevenly. Also the clutch lever is pretty stiff. (he claims it always has been and he lubed it real good one time and it eased up) .. Now that I adjusted it drops in gear ok when cold but when you get to riding and heat it up it starts to drag pretty bad. Wont even stay running after warm when in gear. Clutch lever seems to stiffen also. I have seen some on ebay with the grooves in the basket but mine had none. Just wanting to spend as little as possible cause when I get it right it is sold and the more I put in the more I will have to get back out LOL THANKS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also check your freeplay in the clutch lever and is it an easy pull? Some easy pulls dont have enough throw to disengage correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
