  • Broken clutch spring bolt

    I just snapped off one of the clutch spring bolts. I'm axious to ride, so my question is can I go without one bolt and how much damage can it cause? If a lot, what's the best way to fix it? Do I need to buy another clutch casing? Thanks

      If it is just a broken bolt, it should be fairly easy to remove. Now is the time to fix it right while you have her apart. These things are not heavily torqued! Inch-lbs, not ft-lbs!

        Did the bolt or the stud brake off...
        one of my studs broke, and we drilled a hole for M4 screw, cut a thread into the stud and bolted it from the other side on. It works. Just be careful what kins of screw do u use. It has to be one of those thingies that don't stick out of the surface too much.

        PS: Don't ride without one.
        If it doesn't have an engine, it's not a sport, it's only a game.
