gsxwill Posted June 25, 2023 Author Share Posted June 25, 2023 So stripped the clutch apart, plates stuck together Clutch basket is like new, cleaned and tightened back up, for some reason clutch is so much lighter than my other ef 1 Quote Link to comment
gsxwill Posted June 25, 2023 Author Share Posted June 25, 2023 Started up nice and smooth Though chain rubbing on back of foot pegs and pingle tap needs mods to stop it being permanently on, just checking every bolt be for a road test on a quiet Sunday night 1 Quote Link to comment
Dezza Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Maybe the 'new' efe has OEM clutch springs and your other bike has heavy duty springs. This would explain why the clutch on the newer bike has a lighter clutch. Quote Link to comment
