    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

My Release Rack is Loose

Is this normal for a '82 650? I have about 3/4 inch of play after removing my clutch plate cover. It also wiggles around. Thanx!
 
Is the big hub nut loose ? How does the washer look that locks the hub nut ? These are aluminum nuts that have been known to get loose. There is an APE billet nut for 25 bucks that should fix that. Best way to attack that is to have or borrow an impact driver.
 
Its right in the middle of the 6 clutch springs. It has 6 notches on it that act with the exterior clutch assembly. According to clymer's, it called a "release rack", Thanx again.
 
Sorry but not understanding the question. Some photos showing the problem would be helpful.

Yes

That's OK

It's just a pulling (outward) mechanism. Once you remove the rack, it just sits there loose

You'll see once you pull the pressure plate
