    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.

Clutch cover does not sit right anymore

So when i bought my 85 GS700ES about three years ago it had a very slippy clutch. I replaced the friction plates and springs with aftermarket barnet components. both the friction plates and springs were outside of service specs. when I put everything back together the cover on the left side of the engine (as you sit on the bike) no longer fits flush with the engine. I would say 3-4 mil off. the number of plates that went in was the same as the number i took out. Any idea what went wrong here?
 
so you mean the sprocket cover then? it sound like you haven't got the clutch actuator mechanism lined up right in behind the cover. can you take some pics with the cover off?
 
Right, the sprocket cover. sorry still learning all the stuff. I will get some pics soon.
