Clutch Slipping =[
Posted: Wed May 29, 2013 7:05 pm
Hi guys, having a slippery problem with my clutch since replacing the friction plates and springs on my H1. When i took off the cover first of all, it was a complete mess! steels stacked and washers on the springs =/. So i removed all plates and put the new frictions in, alternating between steels and frictions, starting with friction and ending with friction on the off-set tang (soaked these in oil overnight). I also found i had to use one old friction to fill the clutch basket . This meant i now have 7 frictions and 6 steels (Is this the correct amount?) i then put the springs back on with just the original washers and torqued them up...only problem is, she now slips
I have replaced the oil with 10w/40 motorcycle oil with a new filter, as it was overdue and found this could be the cause, but still she slips.
Steel plates are not warped and measure on the vernier at 1.6 mm, which upon research, appear to be the steel plates from the J1 model if im correct? All springs are brand new EBC heavy duty and are well within tolerance.
Just double checking if i need to replace the steels for the 2.3mm ones in order to cure cure the problem?
Also i have a mate with a spare clutch assembly from an L9, will the basket from the L fit my bike? and are the steels the same on the L as the H?
Many Thanks
