Ahhh, yea,, hadnt thot that far into it. I must be tired.

Dudes, we gots us a disagreement of the spec books again.  

And I don't know who is right ....

The Clymer book is clear as to what it calls #1 and #2 clutch disks -- page 150 shows a very pretty exploded diagram that calls out that shot pretty clearly.  #1 is the one little thin clutch disk.  #2 is the larger 5 pack disk.

Table 1 on page 163 uses these designations to call out the single little thin disk as being  #1 and the larger thicker 5 pack disks to be #2

====================

SV650 factory manual says larger thicker disk is #2 disk
(but shows no pic to back that up)

====================

SmokinBlue agrees with this Clymer and SV650 information from his factory manual

====================

Verslagen says we are all backwards, he checked a '86 manual and also checked some EBC and Barnett clutch plates.  BUT .... is his #1 and #2 designation simply different in his literature from what it is in ours?

       Is that #1 #2 designation the key to this mystery?



The key to this mystery is to check your factory book carefully to see exactly what your book calls plate #1 and plate #2.  In clarifying this mystery let's refer to them as the single front plate and the main 5 pack plates so we can keep our verbal flow discussion straight since the undefined #1 and #2 designations may be what is fouling us up.

Please check your factory books again.

ok guys...I am a dolt.  If I am putting the clutch pack together....which one goes in FIRST. (disk 1 or 2)?...and which one goes in LAST(1 or 2) according to the mighty manual?


Sorry...I just am lost here.

Thank you thank you thank you...now I just have to decide when to do this little job.  I have the disks, and am awaiting the gasket.


Cheers

Is the claw width the width of the part that fits between the spikes on the "crown"?

In the specs chart, ther's a Claw Width #1 & a claw width #2,, I don't get it.

Yea, O.F., people cant do as much & say as much as you do & not be wr, wr, wro,, Incorrect Once in a while. Your batting average is still enviable, so dont sweat it.

I had a bit of a clutch saga........

New to me 86 bike barely running

Got running better and clutch is slippin

Got disks from local store. I am told the odd disk is not required and sells me 6 of the larger disks.

Re assemble and clutch does not release. 4 hrs later figure out problem and install used small disk with the new pack.

Clutch still slipping!!!!

Order new ebc pack and "performance" springs.....a week later....re assemble and clutch still slipping.  

Take back apart......inspect the hell out of the situation. Pressure plate is gouged, steels are blued and the bevel spring is a little outta round.

Order pressure plate, steels, oem springs, new bevel spring.........and problem is gone!!!!!!!!

I was worried that 18 yrs of aircraft maintenance did not prepare me to maintain a savage. If you are working on an older unknown bike, look very carefully at EVERYTHING.

Now I am  

Well, don't order the single 39-1202 plate from Parts N More because they admit they have incorrect WRONG plates for the one single thicker plate with the increased ID to accomodate the bevel washer.

Now, how in heck they plan to sell clutch plates when they can't get the correct plate dimensions right -- they must be using a CLYMERS manual and a CLYMERS blueprint to spec out their plates !!

Sad, but it's true --  this is one really screwed up thread.

Hello,

I have looked in the stock that is on our shelves and they all
measure like the one that was sent to you.

Unfortunately I do not have any others that I can send out to you so
I will need to refund you.

I went ahead and refunded your credit card - this will appear in 5-7 days.

You do not need to worry about sending back the incorrect part.

I suggest you try and source the plate somewhere else.

Regards,

PNM
