Clutch plates
Pauarc:
When you fit keyed washer should it have be loose on shaft I have douts the fin washer was there I think I am going to take the clutch out to find out if it’s there
Pauarc:
Just when for a test run to try clutch adjustment a bit better cold but worse when hot 🥵 could it be the oil getting to sticky when hot in the 70s I used 20/50? Any thoughts it has putoline s4 mineral oil 10w40 in now

The oil gets thinner when hot, would be unusual to have a change in that to make it worse as ordinarily the clutch works more consistently when warmed.
It may be wise to remove, inspect and quantify the thrust washers etc to establish if anything is out of order there as characteristics seem odd.
Before any removal it would be worth pulling and pushing the clutch assembly in and out in order to assess if there's any/much end float on there. This is what the thrust washers etc are trying to control to give repeatability in clutch operation.
Pauarc:
Now I have decided that I’m going to remove clutch and see if I can find something I will see if there’s any end float
Pauarc:
I have removed clutch today before I undone central bolts there was slight in and out movement so took out plate stack which 36.5mm in total also springs out 35.5 long most have noted down wrong so in front of basket the spiled washer I can’t find a thing washer where should it be I have put back together maybe a little better no free play in central nut just to try
