hi, i'm new to this and hope someone can help me out. i replaced the magna's clutch kit 4 years ago, and now it's giving up the ghost again. do i have to get a whole new kit, like my repairer says (cost me nearly 700 last time) or can it be fixed (say, by an engineer)? any suggestions for what to do and where to go?

The reason for premi wear could be riding the clutch or more likely the mechanic that installed it did not check the pivot pin for wear on the clutch fork thus the fork has less travel.

This is a big problem with the TR style clutch as it has so little travel to start with

thanks guys. i'll have them check the pivot pin and get the kit replaced. nobody quoted me 400, though. all around 600...
