    Are there parts missing? Help!

    I am trying to replace some clutch parts on my 82 1100GL.

    Put it together once and the Clutch lever was way loose. (previous thread from yesterday) Took it apart again and looked at a drawing of the clutch assembly in the manual and it looks like I am missing some pieces.

    [IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/czereme/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.png[/IMG]When I removed the clutch plates I noticed no seat spring, wave washer or piano wire. Do those need to be there? The bike was shifting, but not great.

    The reason for taking it apart was that I was having a hard time finding neutral and it was shifting hard.

    Does it matter what direction you put the stamped metal clutch plates back? The rounded edge out or in?

    Thanks in advance

    Sounds like you are missing the spring wire piece. I'm not clear on whether or not it's needed but I do know you need a clutch hub nut installed, and you need to get that broken bolt out too.

        There are two washers and a steel that fit on the rear of the hub. You don't need the piano wire but you do need the wave washers.

          NO, it doesn't matter which way the steel plates go in, as long as they are all the same way... All round in or round out.

            on an every day street bike it does not matter if the punched side of the steels are all the same.....
            on a performance bike it may make a difference but i doubt it.
            i do place the flat side out on all the ones i do.
            just good practice for my brain.

              looks like the 1st steel isn't there.
              you should start with a steel(piano wired in) and finish with a fiber.

                So just where exactly did that hub nut end up?

                  Wow guys thanks for the help.

                  1st off its not ATF. The oil I use is a Lurication Engineers product. It is a paraffin based oil.
                  8800 MONOLEC ULTRA ? Engine Oil (SAE 15W-40)

                  Secondly the Hub nut is off to the side.

                  Luckily the broken bolt came out easy....

                  Just ordered the parts. Thanks again.
