sparkyjohn Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 hi all can anyone help me with my latest problem with my banshee ? my clutch has seemed to have stopped working the lever has gone solid ive checked the cable and its nice and free could it be something inside the gearbox? thanks Quote
fitz18 Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 It could that the ball bearing could have welded to the push rod. Just a thought. You need to drop the trans oil and take off the clutch coverr to get a look and take it from there. Quote
RagunCajun Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 +1. I welded mine a week ago. Had to end up splitting the cases to get it out. Only way to check is to tear it down and see. Good luck with that bud! You can tip the bike over on the flywheel side(shifter side) to save the tranny oil. You needa drain your coolant still though. Quote
Paul M Posted May 10, 2009 Report Posted May 10, 2009 Just wondering why do you have to split the cases to get the welded ball and rod out? the ball does fit through the hole in the primary on the clutch side ? I am just wondering I have heard this before, couldnt pull it out with a magnet ? Quote

I am just wondering I have heard this before, couldnt pull it out with a magnet ? you have to split the cases if the rod gets welded to the clutch arm thats on top of the cases. the one that the clutch cable gets connected to......if it just gets welded to the push rod thats on the clucth pressure plate than you save yourself time and a bigger headeach.. :shrug: Quote
sparkyjohn Posted May 10, 2009 Author Report Posted May 10, 2009 ok thanks guys will set about taking it apart ,nice tip about the trans oil by the way! can any one tell me how it managed to get welded together? and do i need to remove the clutch? Quote

Im not 100 % sure though Im wondering could it be groves in the basket ? Quote
