Either put up with it until it needs a new clutch OR replace the 3 part clutch kit & skim / replace the flywheel.
#3: Re: clutch help new to forum Author: Danielpates, Posted: Tue Sep 18, 2012 1:05 pm ---- so what is the judder from then is it the clutch or the flywheel matey

if its a common problem and you replace them parts will it not come back anyway? therfore replacing them would be a waste of time? or will replacing them cure the problem?

#6: Re: clutch help new to forum Author: Danielpates, Posted: Tue Sep 18, 2012 1:18 pm ---- forget me if this sounds stupid but if you skim the flywheel your making it thinner so the clutch gap will be biggern the bite will be much higher

#8: Re: clutch help new to forum Author: broadblaster, Location: south coastPosted: Tue Sep 18, 2012 1:53 pm ---- on both my 180's the problem was the thrust bearing was trying to eat there way through the presure plates.
i belive the standerd set up is a velo one so i have replaced them with the luk kits as it seems a very common problem so i am hopeing the luk one will prove to last longer.
#9: Re: clutch help new to forum Author: Danielpates, Posted: Tue Sep 18, 2012 2:15 pm ---- ive heard about the luk clutches isnt the biting point near the bootom of the pedal on them
#10: Re: clutch help new to forum Author: broadblaster, Location: south coastPosted: Tue Sep 18, 2012 2:28 pm ---- no mate they seem fine i have no complants about them at all only thing that did feel strange for a day or so was the fact its so light now,but that would be the same with the velo kit aswell.
as said i went luk because if the standerd one has gone on loads of 180's why put the same back in only to have the same problem again in the future.
ok the luk may give the same problem only time will tell.
#11: Re: clutch help new to forum Author: Danielpates, Posted: Tue Sep 18, 2012 2:30 pm ---- ok brill thanks for that mate will order the luk clutch and then go from there then
#12: Re: clutch help new to forum Author: broadblaster, Location: south coastPosted: Tue Sep 18, 2012 2:42 pm ---- i would as has be said by others get the flywheel skimmed at the same time tho just so you know its all nice and straight.
