I've got a couple problems on the primary clutch of my 95' zr 700. I don't know alot about clutches so any thing will help. first a bushing on one of the weights broke and the weight had rubbed on the basket for some time before i found out ( the weight got hung up on the basket and so it was stuck in a hight gear ratio and stalled ). Has anyone dealt with this? if i get a bushing and weight kit will it be okay? Next i just went to pull the clutch i got a puller from a friend he has the same sled and a 95 zrt when i pulled the plug to get to the clutch it looked as if something was in the hole? i can't put the puller in am i missing something? :banghead:

there should be a bolt in there holding the clutch on the shaft. get a light and check. put some grease in the hole before you use the puller. it helps

That is a cap you are looking at. It takes an allen wrench to remove it. Behind the cap is a 12 point bolt holding the clutch on the crank. I replied to this thread in General. My advice- replace the clutch completely.

Same advice here..................toss the clutch, lots of new ones priced right on ebay.

Brand new, 200 dollars on e bay, 9 tower. The on your sled is junk.....Do not rebuild it.

if its inside the hole in the cluth after you pulled the bolt it is a plastic spacer that tends to get stuck in there get that out and you should be able to insert the puller and get the clutch off I also recomend a new clutch as that one sounds toasted and now way out of balance. :face_crash: :i_need_snow: :bounce: :hooters:
