FOXBANSHEE30 Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 I put a new HD clutch and HD springs in my banshee recently and when i pull the clutch in and rev the motor it tries to creep forward just a little and the clutch is kinda hard to pull in. Is this normal for an HD clutch and springs or do i just need to lube and adjust my cable? Quote
Bansh-eman Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 its not uncommon, but it is becasue you need to adjust your clutch at the adjuster on the pressure plate. Quote
FOXBANSHEE30 Posted March 5, 2008 Author Report Posted March 5, 2008 im not sure where or how to do that? is it behind the clutch cover? Quote
Bansh-eman Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 yes you have to drain your fluids and remove the clutch cover. In the center of the pressure plate there is a nut and a phillips screw that is the adjuster. get your self a clymers manuel its a must have. it will explain pretty much anyting you need to know to maintian your motor Quote
dajogejr Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 Not everytime. I've had mine adjusted perfectly with NO lockup, all new basket, inner and outer, and it would still creep a little if you rev'd it up good. What mods do you have done to your bike. Unless you have a ported bike pushing some HP, all 6 HD springs are overkill. You should look into a new clutch cable if yours is a few years old, you'd be amazed how nice the pull can be with a new cable. Also, an EZ Pull lever/perch makes it a lot easier to pull, as well.

Bansh-eman Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 humm thats weird dave, mine never creeped until my plates where either fried or my adjustment was off. when i put it in gear it kinda jumps but the bike wont creep. now if i have the wheels off the ground then yea they will barley spin.

FOXBANSHEE30 Posted March 5, 2008 Author Report Posted March 5, 2008 ive heard of these easy pull clutch perches, is it a whole lever or just the perch? and where is the best palce to buy them? thanks. Quote
Bansh-eman Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 its the whole thing. jeff at fast sells them or you can buy a ASV lever off ebay thats a refurbished for ALOT cheaper then new ones. most after market levers are ez pull. its just a differant pivot location for the perch and lever Quote
