Broken clutch... help needed!
Hi guys,
Droped it doen a gear when going round a corner the other day and this happened... I can only ride it in 1st!  I showed the guy in the garage the picture and he said that they are "pivet joints" and should pop off, bring it down and he will fix it. They ain't budging!!! Any help would be great... I think I will be investing in breakdown cover in the future! lol |

No they don't pop off. Unbolt the arm on the gearbox side.
What's that got to do with your clutch?

Re: Broken clutch... help needed!
I would even go as far as suggesting getting a proper connecting rod rather than using threaded bar...

Re: Broken clutch... help needed!
Removing footpeg bracket might help you screw it back in. That's not standard connecting rod mind...

Re: Broken clutch... help needed!
Looks like it's ragged the thread out though. Might need a helicoil putting in the end or a tap running down it if you're lucky.

Re: Broken clutch... help needed!
i'm pretty sure a new connecting rod a lever dont cost too much, might be worth it, at least then you know it wont happen again and leave you stranded!
