naichuff Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Drain the gear oil Remove clutch cover Undue the 6 bolts Remove springs and cover you should be able toget the plates out Watch for the thrust bearing and the push rod under the outer cover note the order it comes apart as reassembley is the reverse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_e Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 It might be someone has used the wrong oil, Drain and refill with atf dextron 3, very cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyoldman Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 So does that mean the oil makes the clutch slip and drag? Seems like to from the myriad of clutch posts and topics. Need to un-drag mine soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzralphy Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 You will ride better on a newer bike. ...don't get an old bike to "learn" again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
