okbeast Posted April 27, 2008 Report Posted April 27, 2008 So everything is fine now? When you push on the clutch arm on the top of the cases do the arrows line up? Is there any slack in your clutch lever? Quote
dragbanshee Posted April 28, 2008 Report Posted April 28, 2008 If you have problems with the bike creeping or finding neutral try a stock lever or a stock lever mounted on a aftermarket perch that fixed my problem, I put in all new clutch, housing, springs bike was still surging so I tried new cable still same thing so I went with different lever and fixed the problem.

Probably just caused you to get more pull, which disengaged it further. Quote
bansheejoel Posted April 28, 2008 Author Report Posted April 28, 2008 So everything is fine now? When you push on the clutch arm on the top of the cases do the arrows line up? Is there any slack in your clutch lever? i think its fine now but it still is kinda a bitch to get neutral. When i push my clutch arm it is a hair towards the stator side of the arrow. Yup i do have slack in my clutch lever. It was wierd it got HOT then i changed the fluid and its fine now. thanks for all the help guys. what would cause the clutch and cover to get so hot if my clutch isnt slipping? I put everything together right and torqued the clutch nut to 66ft lbs like the manual said. It still creeps a little bit and neutral is a bitch. Quote

It doesnt make since to me why the aftermarket lever didnt work because it seemed like I was getting plenty of pull with it but I just could not get it to work right. Now with the stock lever and A/M perch the thing shifts great, no creeping and goes into 1s so smooth you cant feel it, and neutral is super easy. Quote
bansheejoel Posted April 29, 2008 Author Report Posted April 29, 2008 your not the first person ive heared say that about aftermarket levers, every since i put this one on its been a bitch. I tryed to put the stock lever on the perch i have and it wont fit so i think im going to get a new perch and give it a try. Ive had more problems with this shees clutch its depressing lol Quote
FASTOYS Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Yes but the problems ARENT your F.A.S.T. clutch being fried! I think we discussed this perch/lever issue on the phone didnt we?! Quote
kawiking Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 i run a msr perch and love it, i have also ran a F.AS.T. clutch for 2 years with no problems.. i have broken acouple of springs, but im thinking maybe assembly issues..... :biggrin: everytime i take my clutch apart it still looks good.. after 2 years. so i dought its the clutch. im just throwing this out here.. but could his impellar be fucked up or starting to get that away ??? good luck and dont sell it.....

400rednEX Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 did you soak the clutch in oil before you installed it? Quote
bansheejoel Posted April 29, 2008 Author Report Posted April 29, 2008 yes i soaked everything in oil, i also run a pro design water impeller so it cant be that. im going to try a new perch/lever....what ones would you guys recrommend for good pull? thanks Quote
bansheejoel Posted April 29, 2008 Author Report Posted April 29, 2008 Yes but the problems ARENT your F.A.S.T. clutch being fried! I think we discussed this perch/lever issue on the phone didnt we?! yeah, we did. its not the clutch itself. i dont know what the fuck it is i think it might be the lever and perch as i bought a cheapy. If its a bitch to get into neutral what does that mean??? thanks Quote

J-Madd Posted April 29, 2008 Report Posted April 29, 2008 Use the stock adjuster screw on the aftermarket lever. The aftermarket adjusters are usually too short to tighten the cable. Quote
