VictorK Posted April 11, 2010 Report Posted April 11, 2010 just wondering about the arrows on the case used for adjusting the clutch,should they be lined up when my clutch lever is pulled in? Quote
methyman Posted April 11, 2010 Report Posted April 11, 2010 With the clutch pressure plate bolted up tight you take your hand and push the lever on top off the case to see if the lever will line up with the arrow on top of the case. You just need to take the slack out of the cable and the arrows should line up. If they don't line up then you need to adjust the clutch center screw with the jam nut till they line up. If you have heavy duty stiff clutch springs, then I would line the lever 1/8th to 1/4 inch before the arrow. Quote

The clutch I ordered today is a EBC dirt racer I think the springs are slightly stiffer than stock Quote
methyman Posted April 12, 2010 Report Posted April 12, 2010 so when I push the lever to line up with the arrow they should line up like you said at the point were its lined up and stopped with my finger pressure but the clutch would still be fully engaged at that point correct? The clutch I ordered today is a EBC dirt racer I think the springs are slightly stiffer than stock I don't like the ebc clutch. They tend to slip easy. Spend a little more money and get a Driveline Performance Clutch. They are street bike fibers with barnett steels with toomey like springs. They hold some real power. Quote
VictorK Posted April 13, 2010 Author Report Posted April 13, 2010 Its too late its coming already if it doesn't last Ill get the Barnet next for now I only have gnarlys,powercore 2s'fresh 60 over wisecos'tors gone,+4 timing and holes in the airbox for performance so it should hold for now but when I'm ready to have it ported and 4mill stroker.....

methyman Posted April 13, 2010 Report Posted April 13, 2010 When you get it ported and better pipes with the 4mm stroker say good bye to a cheap clutch! LOL That EBC clutch would not last one weekend on my motors. Quote
VictorK Posted April 13, 2010 Author Report Posted April 13, 2010 If you think I don't want the gnarlies with a ported 4mill can you tell me a good pipe that starts pulling sooner more then most used on a stroker motor because gnarlies have a nice powerband and I was told they can handle a 70hp set up When you get it ported and better pipes with the 4mm stroker say good bye to a cheap clutch! LOL That EBC clutch would not last one weekend on my motors. Quote
