So since you stood the bike up there was no need to remove the clutch from the bike, so the puller and impact were not needed for the spring intall? Just checking if I am hearing this right

Well I took my time cause I was going at it alone, and it ended up taking 6 hours but I did do it twice, and I didn't hve the little t-handle thing, but when I finally got done and went for a ride I just smiled cause when I was in third gear and hit the throttle it gave a little "snap" to my neck and it is ready to go!

I do have two seggestion, one wear leather gloves when scrapping off the gasget off of the front pan I cut the heck out of my hands, second don't forget the e-clips and the little plates, cause if you don't see them till the end then you get to do it twice like me

so now today I get to check the valves brakes and since I am right in there I am running a wire for winch cause I am thinking the wife is giving me one for my birthday

I am finally done (also played with our new camper a little) just need to completely wash it and put platics back on, but now I am doing small wheelies on the grass and it is pretty sweet, I would do a new exhaust if I could stand the noise but I would definatly recomend a clutch kit to anyone that has a foreman.

Oh but I did notice that my spark plug is a little on the black side, should I mess with the carb? That makes me a little nervous

The dog is accutally looking for her tennis ball, Truegrit I did it a second time because I forgot to put on the e-clips and the plates after putting in the springs. Would it be wise to thin out the mixture a little or would the performance not increase much?
