I replaced the clutch friction plates on my FZS 600 Boxeye and am having trouble getting the bloody thing to work. I fitted a set of EBC heavy duty springs, but did not like the feel, so I re-fitted the original springs. The plates were replaced also with EBC heavy duty ones and the clutch was assembled as it was dismantled, same number of plates in the same order. Everything is torqued up to the correct settings and I replaced the cable too. I had a look at everything working before I replaced the clutch cover and it seems to be operating as it should. Pull lever in, pressure plate moves out... Ok then.
When I start the bike and pop it into first gear, it stalls with a little lurch forward (only little as the front brake is applied). I have would the adjuster at the lever all the way IN (which gives the maximum amount of slack, right?), and adjusted the screw down at the sprocket cover to Haynes recommendations (tighten until you feel resistance, then back a quarter turn). I have also tried unwinding the screw full, which makes the lever redundant (slack), and screwing it up beyond "feel resistance", which makes the lever VERY tight. The outcome is the same - bike stalls.
I am at the end of my tether and feel like I might have to go to a bike mechanic. I have never ever had to do this before. If there is anything else I can try before it comes to that, I will.
Any ideas foccers?
