          @Leftyno1 yeah nice one man.

          Yes and no. Of course when the clutch wears significantly it will slip. But it will not disengaged before it slips so theres that.

          What I mean is when the clutch is on ots way out. With the clutch lever pulled in the clutch with not disengage and still pass power to the wheels.

          You them adjust it to its max setting on yhe lever, perch and clutch drum. If that still fails then new plates amd springs.

          But I mean you would need serious mileage before that happens. By which time you will do a full engine rebuild and why you wouldn't build yhe clutxh at that stage is madness.

          Always Originate, Never Pirate!
