there is a mod to drill a few holes in the center hub 120 degrees apart spiroling in from the front to provide oil to the plates<br>Or a new basket and plates. Look at the steels, any blueing and replace em<br>new springs too<br>Cable conversion is only for simplicity at the track. easier to fix in the pits than a hydrolic<br>I leave at 5500 to 6K an dfeed the clutch as I bring in throttle<br>Jim <p></p><i></i>

yes jjs, the other interesting part is that he route the problem to yamaha and them made special clutch disk and modify the boss too adding more oil holes, so maybe when it was time for disk replacement just ask for the same ones that the guy had sent by yamaha, im sure those work pretty well expecially with a falicon-orient express billet basket! <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p072.ezboard.com/bexupbrotherhoo ... canappa</A> at: 10/18/04 12:27 am<br></i>
