Great video and looks real simple to do. It shouldn't need to be but it also wouldn't hurt to have it in gear just to insure the basket won't spin so I guess it is your choice. Thanks Davej and pangea33. That is what i wondered about it spinning. Have most changed clutch plates while in there with new stock or just checked thickness? I only checked the plates when I did the conversion last spring at 30k miles. Looked great. Had the bike in for the recall work last fall at 50k. Had them upgrade the oil pump gear and check the plates while they were in there. I didn't get the specific measurements from the mechanic. He simply said the plates look great and should last me many years. I TRUST these specific mechanics too. So much so that I said "if the plates need replaced once you're in there, I'm fine with it." I think are honestly the only mechanics I know well enough to say that too.   Logged     Ben C - Cary, NC 2001 R* 1600   The administrator has disabled public write access. #945294 MadHatter (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 109 Re:Barnett Clutch Conversion 2 Years, 1 Month ago   Yes, Clutch disc, not basket.

Smooth, accurate shifts and I found the lever easier to pull oddly. Very happy.   Logged     2014 Indian Chieftain, Indian red.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #945407 Jclevesque (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1461 Re:Barnett Clutch Conversion 2 Years, 1 Month ago   Well I guess this may be another mod to do next winter lol man this will never end...always something new and exciting to do love wrenching on it.

I think I'll out it in this week while I'm waiting for my ported manifold from Curt.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #945615 129drifter (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1578 Re:Barnett Clutch Conversion 2 Years, 1 Month ago   The Barnett kit was some of the best money I ever spent on this bike. Just install it and forget it is even there.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #947102 Kneedraggin1 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 1 Re:Barnett Clutch Conversion 2 Years ago   My clutch is slipping bad. I need to replace the clutch and do the upgrade. She's only got 18k on her but I do nail the gears everywhere.   Logged     2001 Roadstar Midnight -Hypercharger -Cobra Long Shots -18\" Kong Bars -Adjure Headlight, Passing Lamps, HIDs -2005 Rear Fender Conversion, factory signal delete, tag delete -DC Brackets, Hard Bags -21\" Ride Wright Fat 50 w/ White Wall Avon -600 Watt Amp, Wake tower speakers on the cage   The administrator has disabled public write access. #947103 SKWEARpeg (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 12885 Re:Barnett Clutch Conversion 2 Years ago   Kneedraggin1 wrote: My clutch is slipping bad.

I'm assuming you have/had another bike based on your screen name. Tell us a bit about yourself. Not a whole lot of actual kneedraggers around here (but there are a few of us )   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #947129 jd750ace (User) Front toward enemy Platinum Boarder Posts: 18763 Re:Barnett Clutch Conversion 2 Years ago   I've been a knuckle dragger for a long time!
