clutch slipping

finally, after the fuel tap leaking and just happened to have a kit handy (kismet) I went for a little run and everythings tickety boo!

woof

have fun, whatever the weather

bloody 'ell that was close. last time something like that happened was when kev farted

looks very nice DDT, 2 weeks to squires now

prob 14th but would like to go 13th as working 15th @ noon.

I bet bitzfor bikes have one and they are in Rochdale. I know, too late now!

Depends how long you ride the bike for, could not be charging enough if your only doing short trips

good job, Paul. will it make a few extra BHP then?

this build up to squires is getting intense (geddit In-tents?)

Kev, Have you tried ESB in Bolton? I have used them a few times and surprisingly, cheap. They order 4:30 Monday for delivery Thursday

very Mad MAx

I told it as it is, I could spin the inner hub by hand, After checking that all the gears lined up behind the basket, I refitted the plates as before but with the new springs.

damn and blast... ha, found it again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVWH8c2sOaI

got some flap disks form Aldi, 3.99 for 5, bargain

well I had it off today (ooh vicar) took all the plates off and put them back in. the new springs were about 5mm longer and da daaa, it all fits in nice and tight. probably it was the springs not putting enough tension on the plates, even though it wasn't slipping before hand! managed to set the float heights and a quick test on the bike and it purrs on tick-over, no nasty rattly noises and revs cleanly too. now i have to get new fuel tap rubber and gasket as it pisses out of there, being removed for epoxy tank lining. nearing the end of the tunnel now thanks guys for your input as it does help putting things into perspective. new order for bits to yamaha and that should be it

???

Gonna have to get your act together Newman to beat this chap the Kebab Master... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tDLiiQWfDg

no its not that, i never got that far. the inner hub is spinning even with the clutch hub bolts tightened up it can't be the oil gear as the back of the basket has to rest on the bearing, not the gear. I'll find out tomorrow when I have the time (and hopefully the weather)

say you'll build a log cabin, that should be a goer

Slice, just get another bike the same colour. The missus won't notice the change the wife has only just realised I have an fz600 as it was red and the xs was red.

what helmet is that Slice?

good luck

I'm sure the oil drive is correct and trawling the internet, they back that up. After all the gear meshes with the oil pump and the basket meshes with the stater pinion too. what doesn't add up is the # 5 slots along the shaft then it's left over a smooth shaft area and becomes loose because of it. I wonder if the inner hub goes on first and then #5 which will take up the slack mentioned. Diagrams have been known to be wrong before!
