Good one.

After a bit of head scratching, a phone call to Race Tech, and this diagram:
I finally got the order and size of the shim stack for each stage of rebound and compression.

you would not have had this problem if you had me do it :-D

True, but what's the fun in that :-P

So, I decided to put my two piece clutch cover on and start test riding it to make sure it will hold up for the long haul.
After thoroughly cleaning the inner clutch cover up, installing new bearings and seals, and installing the governor rod, governor, ect I tried to install it and discovered a problem.
The main KIPPS shaft was stuck.
I tried to move the shaft but it was really stuck.
I next pulled the pipe off and looking into the cylinder... Sure it was locked up but I couldn't see why?
So i pulled the cylinder off and now the lever works fine... WHAT????
Nothing unusual here... Although it might be running a bit lean..
Over all, I'm happy with how everything looks so where is the problem?
