    Clutch Lifter Plate

    Problem solved! At the risk of looking bad,and as a learning experience for anyone else looking, I think I had it right all along. I was trying to push the lifter plate in by thumb (not the actual clutch lever at the bar) when I was trying to diagnose it. A light went off when you asked if the...

    Clutch Lifter Plate

    I do have the thin washer correct. The basket meshes evenly with the primary gear. Everything is exactly as per the manual. With everything installed and tight, and I press on the pressure plate center piece, it won't move. You have been a tremendous help and I really do appreciate you taking...

    Clutch Lifter Plate

    And yes, The plates are in correct order. With the lifter plate tight, it looks like the springs are almost completely compressed.

    Clutch Lifter Plate

    I have an original factory manual. The mystery deepens. No, the inner hub and outer basket do not spin freely (in Neutral with hub nut tight). I have the rotor cover off and can see the engine wants to turn over, which I know that it should be disengaged from the engine in neutral. The clutch...

    Clutch Lifter Plate

    I know better about the 6 Bolts. Was pretty tired when I was requesting help! When tightened down to the posts, There is no movement at all with the lifter plate or the clutch plates themselves. Also, when the cover is put back on, the lever arm cannot move. Several of my classic honda bike...

    Clutch Lifter Plate

    Hey guys! Working on a 1980 F supersport. Just replaced the clutch, and having a problem getting the lifter plate set right. The manual says to "attach plate with 4 bolts and tighten". No torque spec and nothing about how tight against the springs. The 1980 has no notches on the posts for the...
