Clutch

[Ricky]

@Calum I'm going to strip it soon get the ball and rod out to check them and do some more adjustment

[Ricky]

My ball had 2 flat sides so I've ordered a new 1

[Mightyman]

Wow, hopefully it's your fix man!

[Ricky]

Hopefully

[Calum]

NORFE used to chop up some M6 bolts and use as a bearing....

Not sayinf that's good practice but was good enough for him.

[Ricky]

@Calum I've got some old bearings I was thinking of opening them up see if any are the same size the rods are ok

[Calum]

@Ricky That doesn't look great lol.

You can get the ball bearings off eBay for next to nothing..

[Ricky]

@Calum I've ordered 1 from yambits I was playing with the bearing idea as there can't be any difference surely

[Calum]

I should not have thought so, but as said the correct ball can be had off eBay.

[Ricky]

Probably a daft question but with the bike off and my clutch pulled in should it freewheel or turn the engine over slightly when pushing it

[Mightyman]

Very normal for it to turn the engine.

[Ricky]

@Mightyman so it wouldn't be normal if it didn't

[Mightyman]

Well in theory it shouldn't.. but I've found they always do.

[Jens Eskildsen]

Yeb, cold oil is thicker and "sticks" more, so the clutch stil drags a bit.

[Bananper]

Did you figure out the cause of this problem?
