Just a list of what we replaced from stock for background info: Wiseco outer basket, Wiseco fibers and plates, kept stock OEM inner basket.
So to the problem: We've done tons of clutches before on our previous bikes, so we know 99.99% about what were doing, however this is our second clutch on our 450, and the first one went perfectly, yet this ones giving us problems. Everything went together very smoothly, no left over washers or anything, but when we engage the clutch and put it in gear, the clutch doesn't fully engage and it stalls out as if the clutch hasn't even been pulled in while shifted into gear from neutral. We've taken it fully apart and back together and it's still doing it. Could it be the adjustment? We have a lot of free play when the adjuster is all the way in, and It adjusts back out to my liking. I always adjust it out to my liking before I get on the track, and back in when I'm done so the cable isn't stressed while hot. So that's it. Anybody??? Thanks!
