Id disagree Mr Cream....id like to see what type of plate went in, the clutch being taken apart (quite simple but if I can see pics as ive never had all the plates out of mine yet it'd be nice to see a heads-up) and also pics of the order of them going back in and the amount of plates...maybe measurements of the clutch pack also...
I shall post said details in picture form at the weekend...... Ive had many an issue where I've followed the ' yeah you just take this out and put this in' advice which ends up in a farce as the original advice giver goes 'oh yeah you have to this as well or it won't work' For instance, with the clutch it's not just swapping the plate it's not going over the stack size too Ive got some little 10mm neodymium magnets for getting the plates out People, including me, like as much info on a job as they can get, that can seem silly to others
Ironically that's why I posted the velocity stacks pics....my last velocity stack kit came with a couple of brackets from recollection - this one didn't so I had to make some shit up...so I posted it incase anyone else came across the same problem.... Totally agree with you Jody - I'm the same - rarely doesn't anything go to plan...for me anyway...
If it ends up like mine you will have a steel plate left over . So friction plate in first , then one steel , then alternate to end of basket , on mine basket was over full with all steels in , there was no room for end pressure plate . Clutch wait feels excatly the same .
Clutch weight will be the same unless you ditch some doubled up steels to reduce the stack height and therefore the preload on the springs
Im 99% sure the parts manual shows only one doubled up steel at the bottom for the 1100 Hyper then it goes friction/steel up to the pressure plate ending in a steel So I shall be swapping out the first steel
Very different from my 999 then - lots of steels. If you wanted to lighten your lever, you could try losing one steel and one friction. It's very easy to experiment yes, steel against the pressure plate
If you have less Spring tension weight would that decrease pack friction ....suppose 1 missing steel wouldn't make much difference really , mine has the 1mm bigger Oberon slave so it's a bit lighter than standard anyhow
Yes, at some point you will get slip. I'm in the low 30s for stack height and getting no slip though. That's with 130 rwbhp
