Olds Eddie Posted May 14, 2007 Report Posted May 14, 2007 I had the same symptoms when I first got my Shee. I threw a barnet clutch in it and still had slippage. It took new rear tires with aggressive tread to cure. Quote
Justintoxicated Posted May 15, 2007 Report Posted May 15, 2007 What clutch lever are you using? Quote
eagle Posted May 15, 2007 Author Report Posted May 15, 2007 tires spinning on rims? You know that could VERY possibly be the deal. The linear feel of the slip feels just like clutch but the tire slip would act exactly the same. I am thinking it will be something very stupid anyway because I have mic'd everything that has a dimension in that engine and even market my hubs and axle to verify it is not slipping. Did I do that with the tires, hell NO! I will do that promptly. I am praying it is that. That is about the only other thing that would have this ultra smooth feel slip. Thanks for that! Quote

eagle Posted May 15, 2007 Author Report Posted May 15, 2007 And that was it!!!! Mother%&*$# It just hit me like a brick in the face. Don't I feel stupid. Quote

eagle Posted May 15, 2007 Author Report Posted May 15, 2007 I almost didn't say anything, nobody has ever said it, but mine spin on the rims pretty good...it's always the little things Yeah I was betting on something stupid. I just know that clutch setup and it supports my cub motor just fine. I even used to deal with it in racing years ago thus the reason I use bead locks on all my other bikes. I guess there was too much beer involved before to do any real thinking. I feel dumb for not catching that sooner. Thanks again. Quote
