LiftdT4R Posted March 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 Got the billet basket and went to assemble everything tonight but just want to make sure I'm doing this 100% because it's a little different than I've seen before. Should the clutch boss and basket be able to spin free of each other when there are no clutch plates in? I seem to remember every other banshee having the boss and housing spin free but this setup does not. I did notice that the spacer that goes inside the brass race in the basket was hard as hell to get in whereas my prior one slid in and out easy. I'm thinking maybe it was just worn down. After I tighten the clutch nut to 90 NM the basket and housing act as one unit. Even if I put the bike in neutral it's still trying to turn the motor over when I push it. I'm certain all of the parts went back in in the correct order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
registered user Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 the basket should spin free of the trans shaft/clutch hub. not sure if thats what your asking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiftdT4R Posted March 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) Yes it is, thanks. I noticed the spacer is extremely tight in the brass race of the new clutch basket. My old one slides in and out easily so I'm sure that's my issue. The brass race looks to be in good shape though with no obvious defects. It's just very tight. I can put my spacer in my old clutch basket by hand very easily. I have to hit the new one in with a rubber mallet.

locogato11283 Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 Do you have the big washer between the clutch basket and inner hub? It's better for the spacer to be a little loose as opposed to too tight. You can either file the inside of the new basket brass or you can swap the entire kicker assembly completely.

LiftdT4R Posted March 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 Yes, all washers are in place. I saw some folks in older threads using emery cloth so I'll give that a shot. I didn't want to try to remove my old gear and everything because I don't have access to a drill press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
registered user Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 dremel with sanding barel would work for the brass if u have one. otherwise maybe some 80grit by hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiftdT4R Posted March 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) Well I bit the bullet and took my stocker apart so I can drop a new billet basket on my gear. Here's what I found: The cushions are in perfect shape and as other vids on YouTube show the drive cushion is smaller than the opposite one hence the play. Every bike with a stocker that I've worked on had the same play as my original gif but I never opened one up before to see what was going on. I doubt it was close to failure. Other members have had the same experience here as well based on the search. For reference the shee is mostly stock motor wise and has a couple hundred hours total on the motor. It's an '01 so I will say it is certainly peace of mind to see what going on and have new cushions and a billet basket even though it probably wasn't 100% needed. I'm going to do the pancake bearing and shift star while I'm in here too. I was going to fix up the shee good enough to sell her but now I don't think I can part with her. I've been wrenching and riding this one for 15 years now so I think we're attached at the hip. Are there any members here still doing the shift star mod? If so I'd like to send it out.

SKEETER Posted March 16, 2019 Report Share Posted March 16, 2019 You can do shift star mod yourself . All you're doing is grinding off the points, making the ends more rounded. I'm sure theres a youtube video on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
