The clutch

Well, it seems that the problem with the clutch having terminal slippage was due to the spring stopper hub coming undone. It's really frustrating that something so simple has had such an impact on this years racing.

I was pretty pleased with myself for taking the clutch apart and diagnosing it but now I haven't got a clue how to put it together. It's times like this when I realise just how much I have relied on Scott and how I wouldn't be racing at all if it wasn't for his help. He's working totally flat out at the moment so he has no time to help me. I just hope I can get it sorted before my next race in 2 weeks time!
