So just soak the fiber plates? The clutch basket seems fine with no grooves. It does have a bit of play to it meaning I can turn it back and fourth about 1/2 inch or so, is that normal?
So when the new clutch kit comes I will soak the fiber plates, renistall it all back together. How tight do I tighten the screws? Is that it pretty much?
My main issue was holding in the clutch the bike would still be in gear and want to lurch foward causing it to stall everytime I came to a stop in gear. Hoping this might fix that.
Thanks
If it's "grabbing" or not disengaging then the plates are not worn out. I would be more inclined to think it is either a worn clutch basket (like mentioned check for grooving where the plate tabs contact the basket) or warped plates.
Worn plates will cause the clutch to slip, not what you are describing. Did you check the cable slack? There should be about 1/8" max. gap between the lever and perch at the handlebars.
