I still think there are too many teeth on that thing..

I think so too.
Anyway, my parts show cross shipped...whatever that means...I wonder for how long that bike is gonna be down.
If I had a little piece of decent tool steel I would start and try to make my own.

Any time you 2 want, I got scrap that you can play with.
You can modify the existing teeth or flip it over and make a whole set of new teeth.
the plunger is case hardened so you'll need a carbide tool to cut Wink

it or a grinder.

Got a spare clutch cam?

The only spare of those is in 2 pieces like yours.
I thought we were discussing the cam chain adjuster plunger.

No I just made a remark to JOG's comment. I was looking for a way to make my own clutch cam.

Somebody with a plate cutting laser could whack out a bunch of them out of a good heat treatable plate steel.

The rounded pocket would have to be cut, and then the part heat would have to be heat treated for sufficient hardness to withstand the friction from the push rod.

It wouldn't be cheap in a small batch, unless they had after hours access to the equipment.
