Installing a new clutch on my KX500

<< < (2/3) > >>

scotscooby:
Just a small pointer, be careful not to over tighten the bolts they can strip the alloy really easy in the clutch housing. Use a torque sequence when you tighten them. I have looked for a torque setting for these bolts but cannot find one so it will be a matter of feel unless anyone else knows the setting.

MadKaw:
according to the manual, those bolts are 82 inch-pounds

Polar-Bus:
All excellent comments, and lastly, do NOT be tempted to add Barnett race clutch springs. Barnett springs are SOOOOOO stiff !!

MadKaw:
arm pump anyone?

jigggawatt:
I run the Barnett springs on every other one. Three stock and three Barnett.
