wayfst Posted October 10, 2005 Report Posted October 10, 2005 I don't know but thats a bad deal. Quote
thegroup Posted October 10, 2005 Report Posted October 10, 2005 holy shit! never heard of that. only thing i can think of is that something somehow go in there and bent it Quote
BigRed350x Posted October 10, 2005 Report Posted October 10, 2005 I had that happen to me once. I think its just a weak part failure. I wasn't doing anything rough to it at all, then went to shift gears and pulled in the clutch and it did pretty much the same thing. Were you running some heavy duty springs? I was.... Quote

I was.... 424496[/snapback] Thats what I was thinking. Either heavy duty springs, or a lockout, and trying to pull the clutch in with the engine revved. But then again could just be some random structural failure. Quote
banshee x Posted October 10, 2005 Author Report Posted October 10, 2005 yeah got that f.a.s.t. racing clutch with all six springs installed talk about a pain to pull Quote
wesw Posted October 11, 2005 Report Posted October 11, 2005 you should get a pancake bearing for your pressure plate and clutch assembly and them an easy pull clutch perch its makes it way easier to pull. Quote

Send a brotha a part number if you got one. Quote
wesw Posted October 11, 2005 Report Posted October 11, 2005 it elimenates the welding of the rod and ball. i got mine from wickedatv http://www.wickedatv.com/duportal30/home/c...hannel=Products Quote
banshee x Posted October 11, 2005 Author Report Posted October 11, 2005 Yeah I'm going to pull it apart today and see what happend.Jim hooked me up with that same info on the pancake bearing.I'm going to have to get one.I do have an easy pull lever already,but i'm going with that hydrolic clutch from magura. Thanks for all the feedback guys!!!!!! Quote
banshee x Posted October 12, 2005 Author Report Posted October 12, 2005 Found the ball welded to the adjustment side short rod and the longer rod kinda tached to the clutch actuator(arm) now i'm having to use a dremel and clean up the shards of welded material at the end of the rod to remove it from the case what a pain in the ass Quote
