Since We're on Clutches.......

I think it's about time to change my clutch fibers and steels. I've noticed in the last thousand miles that I have to have the clutch almost completely engaged before any grab.

What site can I go to that carries a complete OEM clutch pack?

OK, dumb question. Is the Clutch cover gasket reusable?

Also should I replace the springs while I'm at it?

Just be carefull with the gasket, I have re-used mine at least 5 openings already!!!

Always good to have a new gasket available...

Gasket should be able to be reused plenty of times, but never hurts to have one on the shelf just in case!

Can't remember; which side of steels go in facing the clutch master?

If you are tuning a clutch at the track, you may have it off 5 times in one day........

Stock gaskets are great, I have "re used" one over 50 times

I like the cometic better......., if there is any place where it might seep, the cometic will stop it......

BUT, one thing I will say about Muzzys is, thier lock up spacer was a better finish than the MTC, and I could re use stock gaskets tons of times........, had to switch to cometic when I went with the mtc spacer........

rounded edge goes into the bike. sharp side facing out so when you let the lever out theres no chance of the sharp edge catching on the hub and holding it out (making it slip continously).
