2strokerfun said:Did you buy a complete clutch or just the clutch plates??? Normally, when they start to slip (high speed at first, quickly followed by total lack of use of the clutch), you just need to replace the fiber plates. Springs are a bonus, but occassionally do need replacing. If you bought the clutch plate set, drain the oil, take off the clutch cover, remove the bolts over the springs, take out the old plates PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT ORDER THEY ARE IN. Some bikes use only one size fiber plate, some use one or two thicker in places. Coat or soak the new plates in oil (motor oil you are going to use for transmission). Put back together just like you removed everything.
If the clutch plates fit snugly, they should work. If they don't fit snugly, they may be the wrong plates. As far as brand goes, hard to say since you didn't tell us what brand you received.
If you bought used parts, you might have the same problem you started with.

Yeah you need a little bit of slack to make it work just how you want it.rmc_olderthandirt said:Did you check to make sure that the clutch cable wasn't adjusted too tight?
