Clutch broke
07/12/13 at 18:39:30
 
Took off to go get some parts for the bike and the clutch quit working.  Got it back to my shop and removed clutch cover, was doing it anyway tomorrow to replace chain tensioner, and found the release cam in two pieces.  Has this happened to anyone else?  Hopefully I can find one in town tomorrow either at Suzuki or one of the graveyards.

dont get used,, its been stressed
Mine did it,others do it,, its not common, it happens,  always unfun,
pressed, sintered metal, I believe.

If I was keepin mine, id give thot to having one made or doin it myself.
Not that complex,, real steel,, radius that corner better,,

Nope broke right in half. My stupid ass limped it back to my shop, not knowing what was wrong.  Lucky I didn't destroy anything.  But my cam tensioner was about a mm from popping out.
