Go ahead and laugh. pismo lasted about 4 hours today. Sprag clutch completely gone. anyone have any secrets about when i open her up. any clues what to look for any dooos or dontssss. remember now this is okie mechanics. I can use all the info you want to send. Merry Christmas

 

I think someone on here said they found it alot cheaper thru BMW.

 

For just the sparg clutch I paid $96.00. Here is the link. The motor is the same as the BMW Funduro 650.

i have the sprag clutch and housing and 2 other parts already i was wondering with it opened up is there anything else to take a look at.

 

The only other thing I had wrong with mine is the single gear had a bent tooth and had to be replaced. Thats it.

 

hey i know alittle about them first when you pull the cover off look for a washer about the size of a dime thats on the end of a gear that runs off the starter it likes to fall off when you pull the cover off. use a flywheel puller to get it off then only take the four bolts that hold the sprag on off the fly wheel . take emery cloth and clean any scraches off the inside of the flywheel and the crank where the sprag runs and when you put the new sprag in make sure all the bearings are are facing the same way sometimes whoever puts them together doesn't always do it right its not that hard to change good luck

 

Get a shop manual,must heat flywheel to get off(red loctite used to hold on).Set at TDC and lock.Check both surfaces that sprage chutch rides on for damage and check both starter gears.And that small washer&sleeve both go on lower shaft!

 

I aint laughin 2Big, That sucks man! What CDI are you running?

 

Im running the vortex . I was using a weak battery when i first put it together and i got a whole lot of kick back. I switched batteries, i put a deep cycle gel harley davidson batteryin it supposed to give you 500 cranking amps.
