During my last ride I found I lost my ability to use the Clutch to go into gear, shift or pull in to spin freely in gear. I have lots of play in the cable. On the case you can feel lots of free play in the lever. It's like i broke all the springs at once and does not have any resistance anymore. I removed all the bolts and can’t seem to remove the cover. It feels like it is stuck behind around the r and the d. If I move the lever at the top it sucks it back in. I really don’t want to pry anymore and am looking for help!

Thanks in advance

Is your actuator arm moving when you pull in on the lever, and let out? Sounds like you've broken a cable.
Shift lever off? Actuator arm on or off? You can use it to assist you in removing the cover. The arm is connected to the actuating rod that engages or disengages the clutch basket via the actuator. It helps alot to lift the cover straight off. Many of us have reused the clutch cover gasket over and over with no leakage so try and salvage it.

 

Shift lever off. Arm on if you mean the 3 inch arm on the top of the cover that is connected to the domineering shaft that goes into the cover. I can move that arm freely with just a but of grinding.. shouldn't I be able to pull the cover straight off?

 

Yes your cover should come straight off. Turning that arm clockwise will assit the process as the rod will push against the actuator. Those teeth are meshed. You also have the impeller shaft up front that could bind things up, hence the cover needing to lift straight off.

 

Cover was frozen to shaft. Had to cut up the cover to get off. Found a used cover on Ebay. All set now
