Muzzy Install Mistake!
First off i just wanted to say to a couple of guys out there,, that its in the mail!! i didnt forget about anyone,,and that i am healing well as of yesterday i still have a couple of ribs that are still visibly broken but i feel better each day!,, now on to the clutch install, i have done clutches in the past on my CBXs and GSXRs but never on a 12,, my brother purchased a Muzzy clutch set with the hub and 3 springs etc. the install went fast and furious,,but after all was said and done,,the thing wasnt right,,dragging etc. couldnt find nuetral blah blah,,all this was done without the aid of a manual..turns out after doing the install TWICE the same way each time,,that there was a washer that was stuck to the OEM hub almost as if it were magnetized,,never did look at the hub after removal,,,but once i got near my laptop,, the fische showed it and we went on a treasure hunt and found it,, any how you first timers keep your eyes open for that washer after that it ran great ,, he loves his new muzzy setup,, i had to loan him my clutch cover arm,, because i guess the stack height change before the washer was found caused the arm to wear,,and then let go.. oh well live and learn,, to all of you that had input for the clutch question i posted a couple of weeks ago,, THANK YOU!!
BTW the washer was the one on the back of the hub in between the hub and basket.

i know,, when i got back to the laptop i was able to read the thread,, and check the film,,i still appreciate the help,, he likes the Muzzy,, but then again the last place he had install the clutch,, and it only lasted a couple thousand miles,, i think im gonna try the stock o2 setup,, BTW,, do you know what fibers and steels he got with a Muzzy kit,, i know there where 1 less of each,, but i dont know if they were 1.6s or 2s
