Clutch basket
Clutch basket
Was 'bout ready to install the carbon clutch, basket is notched pretty heavy.
I'm don't really want to drop the cost of a new hinson basket if I can help it.
recomendations on fileing the stocker.
PS,
sucks that the basket won't come out through the clutch cover

Next question:
The Motor is an '01, when pulling out the clutch operating rod the the clutch lifter seperated, opps no ball, couldn't have gone far? can't find it, even pulled the case cover off and ran a magnet around, still nothing. checked out the parts list on bikebandit does'nt show one for that year, problem is, when I looked at the rod and at the lifter I can see little dents like it had one there? WTF.
I guess I'll measure the old stack of clutches vs. the new and see if it did or did not use the ball.
to be continued.....

Bob,
you may get a kick out of this
First of all, would a brand new clutch operating rod and lifter be pre dimpled?
My bike is a service honda, '01, I bought it from a freind in '02, I know that he has not changed the parts and neither did I, so why is a bike bought as new got used parts in it?
I for one am not a service honda hater, I love my bike, most of the welds look good, if it were not for this bike I'd still be riding my '89 500. when I've called SH for help, they got on the phone and assisted me. 'nuf said, just a littls pissed that I spent several hours looking for a snipe

I throw the basket in the lathe and make sure it fits, cleanup the flashing on the case too, I even cut down that brand new basket witht he stainless inserts on the fingers (best basket ever, super smooth, way better than the stock style witha magura)

I just cleaned up the stock one, and put it back together, I only need to get in there every 2 -3 years. next time I'll buy a new basket before I even crack it openRoostius_Maximus wrote:I throw the basket in the lathe and make sure it fits, cleanup the flashing on the case too, I even cut down that brand new basket witht he stainless inserts on the fingers (best basket ever, super smooth, way better than the stock style witha magura)

Who makes a 500 basket with the stainless insert. The 500 does not show up on the barnett site.Roostius_Maximus wrote:I throw the basket in the lathe and make sure it fits, cleanup the flashing on the case too, I even cut down that brand new basket witht he stainless inserts on the fingers (best basket ever, super smooth, way better than the stock style witha magura)

As soon as ther is one finger applying more load from not being filed as much as the others you've made a spot to weaken the clutch fiber and will likely break it. It's all a mess from there

i stop a bit before i get to the lows, that way the basket still aplyes even pressure to the platesonly taking the high spots off and STOP when you get to the lows
the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.

if the new basket got used fibers its just as bad.
btw, the KTM 250+450 from 07+ use the same inner hub , fibers and pressure plate as the honda 250/450

Ugly ehh?!
This motor also had a 2inch crack up the backside of what I think may have been the original piston.
Luckily I never ran it before a tear down!
I had a fibre break in my 01 250 during a harescramble a few years back, the clutch made a hell of a rattle when I was slipping it, but I was leading the class, and my biggest competition had siezed his bike earlier in the race. It lasted an hour of racing, with two broken fibres staying in place.
Needed a new basket, hub and ppressure plate but it was likely due for them anyways.
