I really need some input here and have searched and searched with no success. I'm running a 4 speed rachet top trans and a primo 2 inch belt drive. To give a little backround here this is a bike that was typically a 1 or 2 kick and go every time without fail.
I recently had to replace my clutch and never thought I would be having this many problems now. I replaced the friction discs, set the pressure plate and springs, and up until then everything went pretty well. I let out out all the slack in the clutch cable and made sure the transmission arm was all the way back. I then turned the adjustment screw until I could feel it just touching the throwout bearing and then backed off about a 1/4 turn and tightened her down. Next I adjusted the slop out of the clutch cable and everything appears to be good, clutch activates when lever squeezed, not too much tension in the lever ect ect. I'm ready to start and ..... nothing, I mean nothing I managed to get her started one time after numerous attempts. I could easily pay my local shop to fix this but I want to wrench on my own and really understand the bike. Thanks for any input. -Drew
