my crankcase cover won't go on. i think i may have an extra clutch plate in there, but not sure. anyway heres a pic.. i'm wondering if anybody knows if the outside plate should sit further in or is it were its supposed to be?
any help would be appreciated. thanks! -curt

im pretty sure it should line up with the other plates, it been a few months but i don't remember the last plate bein like that

lee majors

actually i know the last plate lies in the shallow grooves, i just don't know if it should sit all the way back in the groove or if that right

CYCOBOB

i think that it has grooves on the disk side of the the plate they need to be clocked in the rite place and it will go in

+1

Also i'm 'pretty sure' the plates go in a SPECIFIC order..

You can't mix n match them (its not just fiber steel fiber steel) its like number 1 fiber, steel, number 2 fiber, steel..

if I remember right


Also teh way that crank case goes on, you gotta turn the clutch arm as you put it on

with an aftermarket clutch there is no 12345 plate like honda states. there is a front wich will only go on one way that has a larger whole in the center then you stack them the last one going it the grooves like you have in your picture. it looks correct but pictures aren't as good as being there then you have to turn the clutch arm as towliee said and it will pop on...my guess is you aren't turning and therfor it feels like it just won't fit.... my 2cents

o'yeah I have one time used a barnett and again there is no 12345 but the last plate I think had green on the end tabs designating it as the last plate...was a while ago but think it was green ink...

i think u need to **** twit that clutch arm it took me a few spins and jigglin to get it on!

+1 on that. I spent probably 40 minutes trying to get the cover on my r6. you gotta twist the arm and hope it catches right. if not, do it again...and again...and again...

lee majors

thanks for everybody's help. i'll give her another go and see if i can figure it out

SliverR6

Clutch arm got me once to for about 20 mins. LOL

YSRRider

plates appear to be in order.

if you cant get the cover on its because of the linkage arm, it has to be turned out 90 degrees or so to clear the pin in the center of the clutch. if you force it, the pin will break.

lee majors

found the problem...got the wrong clutch cover. the one i bought must be for an f4 or somethin

first pic is the bad cover, you can see the ribs on the inside protrude way too far and hit the clutch stack.

second pic is the correct cover with the ribs cut down.



...again thanks for everyones help.


edit: now where my dough for that bum cover thorpe? lol...no seriously

kylenv

I hate when **** like that happens...spend a few hours feeling stupid and stressed to find out you have the wrong part.....that sucks! figure that **** out...

killswitch12283

yes they are different, you got the f4 cover, baskets are different

YSRRider

well........aint that some ****!

I thought those motors were the same! ******* Honda!

f4ibry

hmmm u sure it was f4?

shitty luck

lee majors

i just wanted to say that thorpe hooked me up again. he accidentally gave me the wrong cover which is a mistake i would have even made(same part # but different covers) so i pm'd him and he refunded me all my money back and had me just keep the cover. i just wanted everyone to know he's a standup guy(no pun intended..lol). thanks again thorpe

THORPE

Not to mention covering the shipping and the extra $5 for the waisted rattle can

No problem man. I hope you an find one that works soon and get it runnin

We all learned a lesson:
Don't trust Honda Part #'s and..... Your money's safe with me
