Clutch Mod?
- Thread starter GSXREric

Some are welding the stock unit. There is also a drop in ring to lock up the stock parts.
The ultra mod part NightCrawler motioned seems to be the preferred method, but I have seen quite a few welded ones. Brock used to sell welded stockers. I don’t know of anyone running the lockup ring but it “should†work the same as a welded one. I've running the Brock Ultra piece for almost 2 years and 200+ passes.

You are welcomed to PM me if you need any help. I installed mine about a month ago but foolishly browsed the instructions instead of actually reading them. Because of that, if you do something wrong chances are I'd be able to help you because I probably made the same mistake.
Oh ... level of difficulty ... it'll take about an hour to complete. The key is getting it right the FIRST time and not having to keep backtracking.
Just a tip. You should have TWO fiber plates left over after installing the cushion mod. The inner-most fiber plate with the large hole AND a regular thin fiber plate.
Also, when you install the cushion, the FIRST plate to install will be a steel plate ... NOT a fiber one.

I had brocks regular billet hub for over 60K miles with no problems. Finaly swapped to the ultra light. Brock makes great products and stands behind them.

yep if you get stiffer springs you WILL break the sprocket cover...a "billet" one is the only answer.
Superkoas is selling them the cheapest right now. $145
I didn't use any "special" tools at all. I used an allen wrench from the tool kit to dig out the plates. For the big nut which holds the hub, I used a bar through the rear wheel to prevent it from spinning and used a torque wrench to get the nut off and put it back on.

that is the exact reason behind the wrench...proper torque on the clutch hub nut and safely removing it without an impact. Many have shattered clutch hubs by using screwdrivers to keep them still.
Turns out I'm on my way to take my motorcycle drivers test (finally legal) and my bike starts making this noise like a bunch of marbles behind my clutch case! Luckily there is a bike shop a few blocks up the road so I push it up there. Well it seems that someone else must have been in there (previous owner) and didn't snug or use locktite on a few bolts, and one of them let loose and busted the whole clutch assembly,basket and all, along with putting a hole in the clutch case.
Anyone know where I can get a decent unit for a decent price? I don't drag but I would like to get better than stock parts.
Thanks anyone,
Shawn
