hi all!
Im having a problem and as the title states, its with the clutch.... and yes... I know, it was when i bought a duke.... lol but all jokes aside this is beginning to test my last bit of patience.
it all started with the slave cylinder being busted and then while i was waiting for the replacement one i wanted to inspect the clutch.... the bike has almost 40 thousand kms on it and i bought it about 11 months ago with 25 thousand so I felt it a safe thing to inspect the whole assembly and since i had drained the oil felt fine opening up the clutch case.... its now turned out to be Pandoras box...
I put followed the video on youtube and the threads on all the forums and couldnt find any detailed instructions in the owners manual of the order of the way it goes back together. I dont have the special assembly bolts but dont think that they are that key in its assembly. ANYHOW to get to the point i get the bike all put back together and buttoned up and when i roll it in gear and with the clutch lever pulled all the way in I get this clicking that happens down in the clutch case.... It doesnt do this in neutral and i even started the bike and it ran fine in neutral. It only seems to do this when in gear and with engine off (obviously).
Im to scarred to try and put in in gear while it makes this tapping sound and thought I would post up on here and see if I could find some help and someone whos maybe encountered this issue could give me some guidance....
Thanks for the help and im off to work and it looks Im taking the bus today.
