k5 clutch issues
98kaw500rider:
Issue solved , I had the center nut torqued down to much with the impact . It would not let the center move freely when not in gear. Just got done putting it back together but its cold , raining , and windy here in Ohio so i'll have to wait to test ride it.
Thanks guys

98k5,
Thanks for the follow up post, and glad you got her figured out.. I'm sure there were several other guys like myself trying to think what was going on. After reading your replies to the other Questions I was stumped... :roll:
I know big shock...there :lol:
Take care,
Tuck\o/

That does not make any sense to me. It seems to me like something still not right,You should be able to tighten that bolt until you strip the threads and not cause it to stop turning.
stewart:
must be one of the three washers missinng or in the wrong order big nut has inner splined washer under it ,,,big washer goes beetween clutch inner basket and outer and small washer goes under the big outer basket
98kaw500rider:
Gosh . . . I can't remember which i put where ( I do have the spline washer under the nut ), guess ill drain fluids for a thrid time tomorrow and check it . I'll be able to do this in my sleep before to long. I know if i crank down on that nut to much the inner basket will not spin freely , maybe have the thicker was in the wrong place ? I dunno ? ? :cry: ??
