New EBC Kevlar Clutch Install Question
I have never messed with Motorcycle engines before, but I am not foreign to engines. I am pretty mechanically inclined, and I just purchased an 01 f4i. The clutch plates were sticking, so I purchased the EBC Kevlar Clutch Plate Kit. It has not arrived yet, but I got antsy and decided to practice the install. I took the clutch plates out, and dipped them in clean oil, and put them back in. I busted off one of the bolts that hold the springs on when I did that. Exactly why I wanted to practice, I would rather screw up the old set than the new ones. My question is, does the new EBC kit come with new screws, or should I be trying to find a replacement? Thanks!
Find a replacement,clutch kits don't normally come with the bolts.I did the same thing,I went to Orchard supply Hardware with one of the bolts and picked up the set for about $2.00.When you put them back on make sure you use a torque wrench ,that way you won't break them again.
I did use a torque wrench, but I also learned that my torque wrench doesn't do very good at 9 ft lbs. It's actually pretty worthless under 15 from what I can tell. So, the bolts aren't anything special? I can just find any 6mm x 28 mm bolt and a washer, and use that? Thanks.
