grinding clutch... aaaargh! need advice.

Post by The Misanthropic Biker » Wed Mar 10, 2004 9:57 am

Folks, Just discovered that my clutch makes nasty grinding sound when operated... how bad I'm f*cked, you think? Is it something a clutch kit would take care of, or is my throwout bearing about to go, or am I in for a big overhaul? Thanks!

Grinding from where? What year bike? The clutch is easy to get at, though I'd recommend picking up the Motion Pro clutch basket holding tool (looks like a set of vise-grips with a funny jaw). You might have the dreaded clutch basket broken spring (as per Elden Carl) if you're riding a pre-96. Figure it'll be 3-4 hours work to get in and out of a clutch inspection. If it's a horrible grinding noise, I'd avoid riding it until you can get in there. Z DC A5X A12X
