Re: Got a Clutch Issue
« on: October 08, 2015, 08:47:31 am »
Ok, So I got word back from the shop yesterday. looks like the little push bearing in my clutch pack exploded, which caused the bolts and nut that holds everything together to come loose. luckily we got to it in time before anything major happened. While they were in there they noticed that my basket was rather worn, their words exactly "it looks like a flight of stairs" when referring to areas where the clutch pates should slide nicely. So I ended up ordering a new OEM clutch basket, bearings and other small stuff $300 give or take. But with free labor!

Also some other good news, they informed me that I had my jetting right on which was hard to believe because trying to jet with a poor clutch was difficult.

I also noticed something else when this 280 lbs mechanic was riding my bike... both of my front tires, the tops lean to one side. I have my tie rods all the way in on both, and it tracks perfectly straight, and frame is straight. Could it be me A-Arms are bent? I never noticed anything out of the ordinary. I'll post some pictures up once I get the bike back from the shop.

Either way the 250 is nearly back in riding shape!!!  +k2
