HI, I am Phil and live on a small country property in NSW, Australia. I have a 1980 vintage AG100 which I use to get around on the property, and even tow a small trailer. The other use is to gas rabbit warrens. I connect a poly pipe onto the exhaust and insert into an entrance. Cover it over and wait for smoke to start coming out other places. After a while you will find all the entrances which may be over 10 metres away. The carbon monoxide will kill any rabbits.

Meatloaf, sorry I did not understand the ettiquitte. After watching various utube videos I went ahead with more confidence. I have never seen the inside of a bike clutch before. I followed some advice I read somewhere and laid the bike on its side to avood draining the oil Then after a bit of a struggle I got out the screws holding the side cover. They are Phillips head screws, not bolt heads. The oil had all drained into the gearbox region which was very convenient! When I pulled out the clutch pack the problem was, as suggested by blackhat250, spots of rust on the steel disks which I rubbed off with 180 grade paper. The fibre disks were fairly worn but I left them since the bike does little work. There are rubber ring spacers between the steel disks. I have not seen them mentioned before. They appear to separate the disks when the clutch is disengaged. After putting it back together all worked correctly. Thanks for the replies.

I have a AG100 farm bike. The clutch will not disengage. For a while it tended to stick engaged but would disengage after a few tries. Now nothing works. I have tried adjusting it. What is involved in removing the clutch to check out what has happened? I have not been able to find repair information for this bike.
