    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

i recently changed over the springs and the cable to new suzuki ones

they give individual pricing and just want to know how many to order

A regular go-to here is to contact and order from these guys ... Fast By Gast http://www.fastbygast.com/

Tell 'em what model you have and they'll walk you through the upgrade. It's simple and worked perfectly for me. (From memory I believe you'll ditch one of the fibres & one of the steel plates as a consequence)
Also, with a set of calipers you'll be able to confirm that your stock fibres are indeed under thickness spec, when you pull them out.

Are you running with the diesel engine oil (like RotellaT) which has additives that our wet clutches perform so well with?

Others with more knowledge will expound.
 
Take the clutch pack out and measure the fibers. Deglaze the steels with steel wool.
2.6mm is the minimum thickness on fibers but I go with 2.8.
See if your clutch basket is notched up from the fiber tangs. This can prevent your clutch pack from sliding together and binding.
