After several attempts, the screw did not move. The wear on the stopper plate doesn't seem to be causing any problems, so I'll let it stay before anything breaks and I have to open the engine... Here is the new stopper lever next to the old one. You can see the wear on the old one, where it was...

Tried, but the bolt wont move, also I stripped the head a bit. Gave it a few hits with the impact wrench, but the bolt still didn't budged. I also applied heat with a heatgun, without success. I assume using a blowtorch is not safe or appropriate. I think I'll leave it as is before anything...

Shifting gears by hand fells much better now, and the light issue is gone. I think that the problem is either the plate hole is worn or the flange of the bolt. Anyway, I've ordered a new plate and retaining bolt. Can I use a manual impact screwdriver to unscrew the bolt of the shifting segment?

Digging up this topic. I've been dealing with the neutral light problem, I've simply gotten used to it. However, lately I have been encountering false neutrals, especially when downshifting from fourth to third gear. So I decided to investigate the source of the problem, and discovered that...

When I have time in the next few weeks I will try it The worst that can happen is having to go back to stock jets

The hole size follows the Mikuni numbering. The thread is identical. My question is more about the outer diameter, which is larger, and whether it has any adverse effects.

Hi everybody, I have these 150 jets that I bought some time ago, and I only now noticed they are different. Left jet in photos is stock can I still use them?

My 99, in Portugal, only has a frame number, stamped in the headstock, *2LT-xxxxxx*, that matches de frame number in the registration title.

This is only possible with the middle drive gear cover off, right? Guess I should have addressed this issue 3 months ago, when I changed a leaking clutch slave cylinder🤦‍♂️

It's a 99 GEN 1 The switch maybe. I don't think it's a stripped wire or something similar, because it's not a random behavior. When going from 1st gear to neutral the light works most of the times. When going from 2nd gear to neutral the light remains out, and after a small downward nudge on...

Hi, Sometimes the neutral light on my bike doesn't come on, although there is no gear engaged. While on neutral, a small tap downwards on the shift levers usually makes the light turn on. It's not a big issue, just annoying. Any ideas why this happen?

Thanks 👍

Hi. I'm looking for a #4 carburetor (front right) body for my gen 1. I only need the bare body. Shipped to Europe.

Also my guess. Whit the new friction plates the clutch is working as it should. Still haven't tried the DD. Thanks for all the help

I installed the new friction plates, with the half plate. Only did a small ride around town and everything seems to be working fine. Later this week I'll go for a long ride, and see if the slipping and the stiffness in the gears are gone.

The new friction plates have arrived, and they are soaking in engine oil before installation. As I thought, it comes with the half plate. It also comes with a new spring, 6% stronger than oem, according to EBC's website. I want to try the dd mod, can it be done with the half friction plate...

The edges are indeed worn, one more reason to change them I ordered a EBC plate set with spring, and I think it comes with the half plate. Like you said, my bike is all stock, so don't plan on replacing it for a full plate Forgot to check that. I had very little time to tear down the clutch...

So I disassembled the clutch, and everything was installed correctly, with all the notches in the right places. However, the inner friction plate, the last before the half plate has the tabs scratched I'm pretty sure that the plate wasn't like this before. What could be causing this...

I followed this Lvlhead's Vmax - Into The Clutch . Looked at the manual, and it's much more detailed. Maybe I missed something... I'll take a look as soon as possible!

Can it be done using some sand paper, without removing the basket from the engine? Or should I remove it to prevent filings from entering the engine? Is there anything else to check that could be causing the stiff gear pedal? 👍
