clutch

Hi all, I am considering replacing my front brake and clutch master cylinders/ handles/ reservoirs, mainly because of a screwed up (pun intended) bolt that keeps the lid on the front brake reservoir (I brought this up in another thread, but affordable machine shops in Brooklyn are hard to...

I have only had this Max a short times but compared to my other bikes the clutch is very hard to disengage after a short ride through town my clutch hand (wrist) was shot. What could cause this maybe someone:ummm: installed stiffer springs?

I have recently bought my first Vmax. I live in the Philippines and the bike was imported here from the U.S. I was trying to verify the age of the bike, so I was looking at some information online. I noticed that on the 'specs' for some of the older models it says they have a 'cable clutch' ? I...

After putting it off for a year I finally decided to replace/repair my starter clutch. I've been reading Yukon Dave's post over an over again and ordered all the parts I need and just started this process. I'm at the point where I'm attempting to remove the fly wheel. I borrowed a harmonic...

I'm in the process of replacing the "infamous" starter clutch with the heavy duty model on "fleabay". I checked my Clymer manual and cannot find the Torque for the three starter clutch to flywheel bolts. Can anyone provide this?

Need these parts ASAP, let me know if you have them!

Anyone know of a great mechanic in the Atlanta area that would replace my clutch? I have less than an inch of 'pull in' on my lever. Basically it engages as soon as I pull the lever in. I didn't realize how far out the clutch was until I purchased a new street glide a few months ago...

I have a bike that got too close to a forest fire, I have most of it put back together but I am finding neutral hard to find, it is easier to locate when it is rolling at 10 mph or so. I also find it almost impossible to push if it is off and in gear with the clutch lever pulled. Do you...

OK guys,, After changing out my clutch master cylinder (MC), everything seems to be working great. So I changed out my brake MC also, (wanted it to look and repond as a new unit should). I figured, why take a chance with these items. The Previous Owner (PO), looks like he had a hard on, for the...

Well, Just changed out the old stock clutch line to braided SS, after having my clutch lever loose its pressure if held in for 40 seconds or more, in 1st gear at a light. Then the back tire starts to move and I had to shut the bike off to get back into neutral. After the SS line is in place...

I have a Barnett clutch upgrade installed and I'm wondering if anyone has a line on a clear clutch cover for a Gen 1? Wondering IF UFO is still taking orders for theirs? See it on Exactrep, but that's over seas. Also found one at vmaxshop.com. Hoping to find it in a match to the matte finish of...

Getting a 01 vmax up and running from the previous owner disassembling it and i ran into an interesting issue. After doing the carbs, starter clutch(three times), tires, fluids ect I went to ride it and found that with the lever out in 1st i only got minimal power to the ground. Counted the...

I am in need of a clutch master cylinder and mirror for an 05 VMAX. Thanks!
