This play .003-.006 isnt in the factory manual so I'm glad you shared that. I'm pretty sure that goes for my bike too. If the play is too big could it result in vibrations at high revs? I am experiencing vibrations >4000 even though I have sync carbs and the rotor has no play at all. The vibes disapear when i pull the clutch.

Tnx for the answer, i cant really find any usefull info in the factory manual. The steel bit of the basket is still solid in the aluminium and goes on a needle bearing that goes on another steel bit and then onto the shaft in to the gearbox. I'm pretty sure the play is in the bearing - since it is probably weaker and moves more than the steel parts it rolls on. Maybe it can be all three parts of course but the clutch lookes ok and has been replaced during the bikes lifetime (and someone put the oil pump gear back the wrong way round) but I was just wondering how much play the feel should be in the basket (without the plates mounted). I'm not sure what you meant by putting a post in the general section, I just want to ride my OSS ( I don't know any member of the swedish female volleybal team (I did make out with one from the danish team 100 years ago) but they would be welcome for a ride:)

Working on my clutch i found the clutch basket bolt to be loose. Hopefully this is the reason of vibrations revs >5000. But I also found a small play/glitch in the house itself wich can only be the needle bearing. Is that normal? Or should it be no play at all? Bike has done 87000 kilometers...
