Thanks.
Don't know quite what I'm going to do - perhaps nothing at
the moment. When I fixed my tranny, I put in the throwout
bearing incorrectly (missed a race - washer), rode it for
about 60 miles like that until it finally gave up the
ghost.
Currently the clutch has a very short effective range of
motion i.e. the clutch disengages/engages over just a
tiny bit of motiion on the lever in the middle of its
overall throw. I'm wondering if I didn't grind off some
of the pushrod or maybe its just a well worn clutch. I'm
going to do a complete teardown for the cosmetic upgrade
this winter, but thought I might futz with it if it could
be done without ripping it out again (which I can now do
in my sleep).
I have the "old stuff" in there now, but I do have 3 cone
seals from MG cycle waiting on the bench, and yes, I have
a parts book.

kit?

Related question - on a 5 speed, can the entire pushrod
be
replaced without removing the tranny?

Consider also that the clutch pushrod seals could be
binding on the rod . . .

| | I'm pretty sure they are sintered bronze- at least
that's what mine
looked like.
A year later (3K miles?), it is finally starting to |
|
| | | | a slight
amount
of noise. I was under the impression that the
single-plates sound like
a tin cup full of angry nails, but mine has been |
|
| | | | very quiet. I
think I'm finally wearing through some of the |
|
| | | | (amsoil, heavy
trailer axle grease) that I put on the spline.
Before installing one, I read everything I could find
about these
clutches. They've been used mostly in LeMans or
outright racing type
applications where the rider is hard on the bike. The
earliest account
I found of wearing out the plate was around 5K miles |
|
| | | | this from a
guy
who rode a LeMans loaded up with a touring pack most |
|
| | | | the time.
There
are few reports -that I've found- of the RAM wearing
out. Bill, I
sincerely hope yours hasn't given up- that would |
|
| | | | bad things
about mine in the near future. Anyway- I was under |
|
| | | | impression that
when the disk wore out, the clutch would slip rather
than bind. So
perhaps some of Greg's suggestions about lubrication |
|
| | | | more likely?
