Man I hate to hear you couldn't get it to work for you.... I've never had any problems once I figured out the real problem.......Comment

The real problem is its a poor design to begin with. Too much friction in all aspects of the clutch actuation and release. The 3 finger "works" better but is weaker because it has fewer fingers. I matched plates, I ground and filed holes in plates to get them to slide properly and tried every tamer and doo dad they make. You just can't polish a turd. I'm glad yours is working, but if you ride your shovel with any regularity it probably won't for long.Comment

I've ridden my Shovel, Pan and Knuck many miles with zero problems because it's adjust properly....
Did you work the bearing surface of the clutch basket that when you spin it the way it rotates that it goes in not out????? I bet not am I right???Last edited by Tattooo; 04-26-2017, 5:02 PM.Comment

Recently put in a new transmission, clutch springs, 5 finger hub, pressure plate, and Barnett clutch cable. Having issues with clutch wanting to dump when first starting bike and shift into first. Only does it when you rev it up for the first couple of minutes. Clutch isn't slipping in any gears. Adjusted the pressure plate last night half a round and seems like it may have got worse. Any body got any ideas? Thanks in advanceComment
