[QUOTE="TonyJeske, post: 1164459, member: 75618"] I would recomend purchasing a Hinson clutch basket/hub/preasure plate combo. (Expensive though) Simply because they are machined out of billet alluminum instead of cast like stock, your clutch components will last a lot longer. Keep in mind it will take care of the clutch drag that the rm125 in notorious for. Also you will need both the inner and outer clutch basket gears so don't throw the basket, because chances are those gears are still good. Also look at the preasure plate. Inspect it on the surface that meets the friction disk. Drag your fingernail across the surface, if you feel a groove anywhere it is now a paperweight (dont reinstall). I can't remember but if the basket won't fit thru the clutch cover hole you will need to disasemble the right side. [B]Drain the oil and coolant first[/B]. Pull the kickstarter then remove all the 8mm bolts. Be carefull when removing because your kickstarter assembly and waterpump shaft may have washers that stick to the case with oil. Place the champfered side facing you when placing them. I think that the basket nut is a 27mm nut and the torque is around 50 ft lbs but don't quote me on that but the clutch spring bolts are 7-8ft lbs. I run 8ft lbs on whatever the bike. If you have any ?'s regarding torque specs call your local suzuki dealer and talk to there service department/manager. [/QUOTE]
