even if the clutch plates were completely soaked, they
would still transmit power..there is NO SLIPPING in
this clutch arrangement...I've been told it's like a
moto cross clutch...the basket has fingers holding the
slots on the friction plates...nothing slides against
each other in this system...when you pull the clutch
lever it seperates the plates from each other,
stopping drive to the rear, but the plates themselves
don't "slide" against each other like a conventional
big twin clutch...I've got one apart in my garage
right now...

I think I'd look more toward the ATF pump in the front
cover losing the ability to draw from the reservoir on
the left side...the ATF pump runs off a pin straight
off the cam...if the pump housing becomes fatigued,
the shaft begins to round out the shaft housing hole,
then it refuses to draw from the left side
reserve...if you had it all apart in your hands you
probably would go "Aha!"....

but again, make sure the clutch lever arm on the back
of the tranny has slack...too tight and you'll be not
delivering power to rear wheel also..

good hunting to you...

no, i regularly switch from high to low..(well not
that often, but you
can definitely tell the difference..) i'm thinking
massive clutch
slippage, perhaps front clutch seal is blown and
clutch plates are
soaked.... but i keep thinking torque convertor,
because it feels like
when a torque convertor fails on a car.....

ExpertCity===========================================================Hi
 Greg,Does the engine rev higher than normal? Or
does
 it sort of labor? If itwas your flywheel, the
starter
 would not turn the engine over. I'm gonnagues that
it
 is the clutch, or maybe a dragging brake.Darrell

ExpertCity===========================================================been
 riding my convert, as i'm waiting for the solenoid
on
 my loop to be rebuilt...it was doing great
yesterday,
 and today it just would not accelerate, engine runs
fine, just not delivering power to the rear
wheel.of
 course, i thought it was the atf pump, but i
checked
 it by removing return hose, and starting it up, it
pumped fluid everywhere...anyone know of a common
reason of very slow acceleration?
