Clutch ??

[gilbert81]

So today while out riding my bike I go to accelerate and it just revs but doesn’t speed up until I let off the throttle I can slowly accelerate but have to work up to it would that be the clutch or transmission don’t really know where to start on it . Could it be my clutch disk wearing out . I have a open primary on it as well .

Sounds like clutch issue. Could be the drive belt check and see if teeth are missing on it just to rule it out.

Checked that out today , they all seemed to be ok , was thinking maybe disc but I would have to gauge the thickness of them ? Are they all pretty much interchangeable being I don’t know what brand the open primary is . It doesn’t have any kind of stamping or anything that I can see

That would be a question for Curtis at wild steed worxs or maybe Shannon also known as Mr Wright on here. I have the baker open primary on mine and i dont think other clutch disk work on mine.

 

[Mr. Wright]

Throw us a picture of the clutch and the OP

I was going to say it's the clutch hub nut came loose but you would probably leaking fluids...and you're not.

 

[gilbert81]

If someone could agree with me answering my own questions:
1. If the clutch center nut is loose, does the pushrod push the whole basket out and there is no way the rod and crack the plates loose, because the basket was sent out on the trans output shaft and the throw is so far? So I would be grinding gears with the plates not separating on a loose shaft. If this occurs [I would assume] as a loose nut would, then the OP is not complaining about gear grind. Therefore, no loose nut in the variable of loose plates slipping?

2. If the nut backs out, the collar that the seal is mated to, this would walk the collar out past the seal lips and there is the leak on the driveway [see picture]. But the OP does not mention anything about a leak, but slipping plates.

3. There are members here that supply parts for the BD so you'd be smart by replacing the pack with fresh steels and friction plates. For example, when changing belt or chain, you replace all 3 parts as a set. Same as saying you hoarded rolls of toilet paper, and you are so anal about things you just wipe half your ass. So ass the cheeks swish back and forth, that other half you didn't wipe, transfers over the the other parts you didn't change, and well, you're shit out of luck wearing out the belt/chain sooner; than if you wiped all of your ass clean the first time.
