A friend has a 650 with a starter clutch slip when it's hot instead of cold like mine. He changed his spark plug gap to .3 from .32 says now it starts every time. A small change can do a lot.
He offered to maybe help me install the kickstarter on my bike.
Can the clutch be removed with the big bolt in the middle or do all the small bolts and springs need to come out?80 GComment

The 6 bolts that hold the pressure plate and springs need to come out first, then you will have access to the large nut..Can the clutch be removed with the big bolt in the middle or do all the small bolts and springs need to come out?2H7 (79) owned since '89

Make sure you turn each bolt a small amount, like maybe half turn, then turn the others the same amount. If you remove one or more bolts without balancing the others, you are likely to crack the star plate.Originally posted by bikerphil View Post-Mike

Like they said, the pressure plate can crack if not loosened or tightened evenly. The M6 screw does not have to be Godzilla torqued. Just snug tight. It's steel in aluminum threads. Easy to damage.

I kind of recall kicking one once with a foldable kicker, and it seemed to be dangerously close to the side cover. I was afraid it would break if I hit it with my boot. Any clearance issues with yours?2H7 (79) owned since '89

I was worried about the side cover but it's more up by the air box.
Good idea to push up the rear peg out of the way.80 GComment
