bultaco 199 Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Hi chaps, I am looking forward to buying the In motion clutch as it has both sets of plates (Friction and plain) it is £90 I long for a two finger smooth clutch. Has anyone got one fitted? Martin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millerme Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 save money and buy the Barnett clutch from the states it cost me £35 inc p&p and I didn't pay any duty on mine 2 mths ago if you use a seller that send them as std just use 4 plates not the 5 they send and use you original springs as the Barnett one are to strong ,bath them for 24 hrs in ATF the fit a old steel plate then a fibre plate and so on ,And this will give you 2 finger clutch hope this helps 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smelling123 Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I also have them as described by millerme with the springs backed off a little and a venhill cable - one finger action works great 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondy Posted May 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) Yes i have the same set up as smelling 1 finger also i didn't use the barnet springs as millerme says there to stiff.ignition case mod and longer clutch Arm good cable with clutch springs backed off all go to make it nice and light. i do have the original plate new not sure if i will use them on next build or buy more barnet plates.

bondy Posted May 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Hello Scot yes they are good just use 4 not 5 and old springs if you have longer clutch Arm use it will make it lighter my clutch basket is made from alloy some are steel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guys Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 IMG_2602.jpg So as it was Sunday and In Motion were shut I thought I would simply swap them over putting the short steel operating arm on the front brake.... . But what surprised me is the front brake is now fantastic! Much shorter travel one or two finger operation and still enough leverage to lock up the front wheel if needed. Maybe the short steel lever on the front brake didn't bend as much as the longer aluminium one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
