Getting ready to buy a new clutch kit for my '85 Nighthawk S. I am still running the clutch that was in it when I got the bike from the 3rd owner several years ago. I assume it is the original clutch ( but not sure) The clutch will sometimes slip upon hard acceleration at higher rpm at or while changing gears!! I intend to replace friction plates and steel plates as well as springs.
My questions are: #1. Will I need a new housing gasket or are they sometimes reuseable? #2. What brand names of clutch kits do you recommend? ( I was thinking of getting Barnett?) #3. I have the service manual, however, can the job be done without any special tools? Thanks in advance and as always ~ happy riding. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
