70K question

03-29-2005, 08:34 PM

OK guys here's the deal,
The monster has 70K on it. I had the sprag clutch bolt replaced last year dur to them being sheared off. The mech said everything was great with it, put oil and gas in it and just ride. NOW, it's spring time tune up for it. I am bringing it into my mech, and want to know what I should have done or look at. I plan on keeping it around, so let me know. Thanks guys.

What's that?

I guess it was the 3 bolts that hold the clutch basket to the crank. 2 were sheared and the 3rd was ready to go. I guess it's not an uncommon problem.
