The clutch springs are probably worn or I've seen the holes in the shoes the springs go into become elongated. If the holes are not round you'd need a new clutch if the holes are round and not elongated then new springs should do it.

That contra spring may be too stiff depending on your motor. Is it a stock cylinder and exhaust? I can't tell what deep cut your talking about. The pulleys should slide freely and the clutch bell should be smooth and not glazed. The older clutches were 2 shoes and the springs should be tight. Hope this helps.

yes sir its all stock,the pulley is sliding freely but i have no way of telling if the groove on the pulley are still good,because it doesn't have a pin to separate. sir is it ok if i change my clutch shoes to a 3 piece one? attached photos are the deep cuts on the pulley shaft. is this ok? no worries on this?  |

Looks like the contra spring has been digging in it. I'd put a stock contra in and replace that base. It may take some work but it will slide up and off. You can put a three shoe clutch on just make sure to get one with the same diameter as the clutch bells inner diameter or order a new bell that matches.

Thank you so much...I found what my problem was. The contra spring I was using (red one) is to short. It measured 70mm my standard spring should be at least 109mm so this is why my clutch is not engaging enough. again I would like to thank you.  |

A lot if the stiffer springs are shorter. There's no need for a red spring on a stock set up. The contra shouldn't have an effect on the clutch engagement though. That's the clutch springs job. Hope you get it sorted out.
