Default Just my luck

Well I got my 97 Warrior back together and rode it for 30 mins for the breakin. I was waiting to put the ne clutch in after I broke it in. Well I decided I wanted to go riding this weekend, and went to replace the clutch. The top bolt on the back side broke off on me, no big deal right? Well I took all the other bolts out, I thought, Call mself felling every hole, but it was stuck on the back side, and i figured it was the top broken stud holding it. Gave it a lil extra nudge and off it came, one problem the middle bolt on the back side was still in the motor[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] AND I HAVE A BROKEN CLUTCH COVER now. Moral of the story pay attention, and learn from my mistake, oh yeah hold on to those extra parts, and don't sell them, never know when you might need them... So no riding this weekend, unless I can get one by tomorrow.....

man that sucks dude. You might be able to take and jb weld the hole that is in the cover as a temporary fix just to have the bike on the trail for the weekend.

I have fixed more than one cover that way and if you do it right it will actually last a long time.

I know, I did get to ride it last night though, and though i never got on it hard, which is contrary to my beliefs, but i read the instructions[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] it seemed to def. have a great improvement, but after the money i've spent would hope so.
