I had a race this weekend, and on the last lap of the last race I thought I snapped the clutch cable.
Pedal flopped to the floor and I couldnt get it into gear. I was able to rev match it into 4th and nurse it all the way around the cool down lap and roll into my spot in the paddock, no-one but me the wiser... Anyway I get underneath and the aftermarket black plastic clutch pulley had MELTED and folded over letting the cable slip off. I have the kerry hunter-like headers where the 4-1 collector is basically right next to the clutch pulley. So I will probably built a heatshield for the trans in that area AND replace the pulley. But before I order another black plastic pulley, dont I recall seeing pictures of an aluminum or brass clutch pulley from somewhere? |
