Re: clutch top plate and kickstart shaft problems

andy you were right,the kickstart bush was protruding slightly,tapped it in as you said,also measured the clutch shim,came in at 1.4mm,ordered up a 0.8mm,will see how that lines up.

It was only after I posted and was giving it some thought I realised the plate thickness wont make any difference as its down to the groove in the spider and circlip,are there variations in different spider groove hights ?

Re: gp 150 will not tick over
