Troubleshooting
Clutch slipping after installation
Verify that the clutch plates were installed in the correct order and that all bolts are torqued to manufacturer specifications. Ensure the break-in period has been completed. Check clutch lever free play.
Difficulty shifting gears
Confirm that the clutch is fully disengaging. Check for proper cable adjustment or hydraulic fluid levels. Ensure no part of the clutch pack is binding.
Excessive clutch lever effort
This can sometimes occur with performance clutches. Ensure the diaphragm springs are correctly oriented as per installation instructions. If still excessive, consult a professional mechanic.
