I recently acquired a 300 Bayou that has clutch slipping issues. I pulled the clutch release adjustment cover off and the locking nut was broke off. My question is if I replace the adjusting pin would that make any changes on the slipping clutch? I want to make sure that I replace everything that I need to the first time I open it up so I don't need to buy more gaskets and oil.
The slippage that is occurring is that the machine barely wants to go unless the RPM's are really high.

Check that the centrifugal clutch shoes are not worn down to the metal.
Some would advise fitting a new clutch kit to the secondary clutch. I tend to go for checking the plate thickness and spring length with a vernier gauge and, if OK, just rough the surfaces with emery cloth before re-assembly. I haven't got the manual for the 300 though, so can't say what they should be.
