  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

250-500cc How thick is new clutch plate?

I just sent the husky in for the rebuild and the clowns say they replaced the clutch but left the old dirty oil in the case. Like WTF man.

So question is how thick are the plates from a worn clutch vs NEW.
The single padded plate i pulled out is 5.5mm thick. Is that NEW thickness?
 
Not sure about the thickness (not even sure what model bike you own), but the shop should have put in new oil and saved your old parts for you to inspect.
 
Its a WR300 2009 ;) I just can't believe a bike shop would replace a clutch and put oil back in it that was already well overdue to be replaced.
I pulled the clutch out last night and it seems to have been changed. Pads aren't polished and no scoring on the metal plates. ;)
 
So clutch was replaced but the idiots def didn't replace the oil at the same time, WTF dudes!

mighta just done the easy way & laid it on its side & just ripped plates/fibres out & replaced. did they charge you for the oil? give em a mouthful!
 
Maybe they were trying to do you a favor and save you money and by reusing your old oil reduce global warming. I bet oil is rare and hard to find in Dubai :lol:
 
Haa, yeah would not surprise me one bit if they laid it over. Drained her out and left the old shit in there. That explains why I now have 2 different hand grips
after service. Idiots. Never going back there. Ive never done a clutch but after checking it Im surprised at how easy it was. Should have done it myself from
the beginning. :)
