cant go over 60

arctcknight · Jan 9, 2005

for some reason lately my rig cant go over about 60 mph with out my clutch screaming like a 13 year old having her first period. having put a new clutch drive shaft and motor in less than 2000 miles ago im hoping its something that is a quick (and cheap) fix any ideas. i was usually able to cruise right around 70 but it has been slowly droping over the past week or so.

Pressure-plate issues....or clutch adjustment is incorrect. Should be a bit of play on the throw-out bearing arm, & a bit at pedal.
Did you surface the pres. plate while it was out ? Hope you haven't scortched both by now.

is it slipping?did it grab good when you put in the clutch?did you turn the flywheel?how about the throw out bearing?
just giving some ideas,could be a bad oil leak soak the friction disk too.
