AustinONeal Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 Hey guy the other day I went to kick start the bike and it kicked back all 3 attempts trying to start it. Got it running and parked it and I noticed oil pouring out of the clutch cover. I guess the kickback broke it. Any ideas who I should send it to for repair???. Quote
BUILDER Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 You need to send it to the scrap yard. It is time for a new clutch cover dude not worth fixing that thing. Quote
Ace03 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 I saw the break that sucks. Too bad there isn't a timing retard button you could hold to get it started. Nice bike tho. Quote
trickedcarbine Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 Used covers are CHEAP! Hit eBay. Quote
AustinONeal Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Posted February 25, 2013 Oh I got a cover just who to send it to Quote
Jereme6655 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 what they are saying is that its not worth it to "fix" it. You can find a different cover in the FS section or through a site sponsor. Its not really work taking the chance to try and fix it...just to have it not seal up and ruin another trip. In order to fix that they would have to ley the bead all the way to the machined surface and then mill it back to flat.......that's IF it didn't warp the mating surface for the case. its way quicker to just get a new one. And on that note.......is this on a drag bike or a big motor running serious compression? My question is why would it kick back 3 times in a row...... you either have something odd going on with your motor....or your kicking too high of compression.......or maybe not kicking through completely???

AustinONeal Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Posted February 25, 2013 Ya I was not kicking it violently enough it's a 10mm kt cub w but loads of compression and timing. I just ordered a direct drive beefed up one. But I got 4 Banshee motors. Got a little ss cub that has a stock cover and since the ring was wasn't damaged I thought maybe fix it and throw it on that bike. U can see everything but the adapter ring and cover that holds the lexan is ok the cover is just trashed. I wasn't sure maybe Millennium or stellar could fit it? Quote
sprinklerman Posted February 25, 2013 Report Posted February 25, 2013 Where you @ Atoka Saturday? Quote
AustinONeal Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Posted February 25, 2013 Ya I wasn't even racing I just made a pass and it was setting. Went to watch my wife make a pass then was going to ride it to the trailer and got off it and saw the oil running out. Ya it was at Atoka. Quote
AustinONeal Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Posted February 25, 2013 Just paid 300 for the direct drive cover it would be that high? Quote
ClayAiken Posted February 26, 2013 Report Posted February 26, 2013 Any half decent tig welder should of been able to do that. Quote
trickedcarbine Posted February 26, 2013 Report Posted February 26, 2013 Any half decent tig welder should of been able to do that. Why? A fresh one on eBay is about what any welder would charge. Even then, once a cast piece is broke it'll never be as strong. Quote
vulvafan537240 Posted February 26, 2013 Report Posted February 26, 2013 I paid 300 for mine with the lockup Quote
J-Madd Posted February 26, 2013 Report Posted February 26, 2013 That's odd for a 10 Mil Cub to kick back like that. Was the fuel on? I had mine break some teeth on the idler gear when it kicked back pretty good, but the fuel was off. Make sure the gear on the basket is ok. I've had them break the cover and basket gear at the same time (on bigger motors.) Quote
