Thanks guys. Could be the thrust washer cant remember if it was there or not. I shall find out this afternoon.

Found 2 suspect items in the clutch.

The spring disk behind the clutch centre (you know the part that's fit and forget) was in back to front. Must have been like that for years as I didn't remove it on the rebuild. Its the one behind the giant circlip that never needs replacing, weird.

Also the adjusting bolt threaded end that goes through the lever pivot was bent. I have a spare one of those, so fitted that.

Just waiting for some new 25mm circlips as it bent getting it out, and a new gasket. Then I shall give it another go.

Everything else is where it should be, and the disk stack measurement works out correct according to the manual.

Will see how it looks when it's back together.

Thanks for all the comments and help again.

Just a quick update to close this thread.

The clutch is now back together and working well. A nice silky smooth action as well.

Only found the two issues, 1. A bent adjuster bolt that I missed on assembly, and 2. The plate spring was fitted back to front. This must have been done by the PO as I didn't disassemble that part as its not normally required unless the steel plates are changed.

Don't know how they were riding it like that, it was only a small mistake but it made a huge difference.

The offending part is item 11 on the diagram.

Looks like the Cruzinimage clutch plates are okay after all.


Cheers all, and thanks for the help.
