Well.. apparently there are 6 bolts that hold the clutch together (from what I understand) I apparently sheared 2 of them completely off. Should be less then $500 to fix, which is less then I was expecting. They told me that they do not need to replace the whole clutch, just a few pieces, inc. the bolts I sheared off. They told me that there was a recall on 929's clutches and that when they looked my bike up they saw the recall WAS fixed on it. They also told me that 929's and 954's are known for going through clutches really fast. Could have been much worse I guess

 

glad its not so bad after all,,,i know "kid" had you a nervous wreck,,using words like "toast" and "cracked"

 

Nervous wreck is an understatement! Such a relief to hear that it's going to be a realistic price to repair. I was getting ready to start filling loan apps if needed haha. I WAS NOT GOING ANOTHER SUMMER WITH NO BIKE!

 

Wow, never heard of that!

Haha, in all fairness I was just trying to prepare you for the worst... dontcha feel better! Lol, good stuff - still crazy, never heard of anyone snapping those clutch basket bolts.

WE NEED A VIDEO OF YOUR RIDING!

Good stuff, good stuff.

 

I bet I was right about one thing though...

I bet you broke them or did the majority of the damage on your last ride home. **** was just waiting for the wind to blow right .

Good thing you weren't at speed... coulda been bad bad bad!

 

Guess I get to claim victory on that one

 

The really scary part is that the last time I was on it before I realized it was broken was a really hard 4hr ride. I had the thing topped right out at like 175kmph. HOLY **** am I lucky it waited until I got home to seize up. I'd be getting colouring books for Christmas next year! (If i even lived)

 

What I meant to say was 275kmph

 

^^^Me and RCR we're BOTH right, muhahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I love this place.
