Not really sure if this has been mentioned before but its a great idea to remove the clutch housing and clean(using brake cleaner and a rag)and lubricate the roller bearings and slide points of the clutch with a good quality high temp tacky grease every 2500 miles or so.Ive seen quite a few clutches wobble apart and go bad after some time due to high heat and no lube in this area.Just make sure not to get too much grease there,,focus mainly on the roller bearings that ride on the shaft...also dab a little on those pulley slide pins inside the clutch pack.
Your clutch pack will thank you!!
Happy scooting guys....

I agree, I do a complete break down. clean everything well grease all pivot points repack the needle bearing deglaze the bell. This makes a noticeable difference.

Yeah Geh,, Did that today,,I did the bell and 3rd gen blue clutch,,love it to death so far,,very smooth and strong to say the least,,i didnt like the springs that came with it,,they didnt engage until around 4k RPM so I put my stock one's in there,,I would rather engage around 2800-3K man,,just seems a bit easier on the clutch and bell cause things are not spinning as fast,,also i dont race out of the hole,,i usually take it easy from a stop..I pretty much upgraded the clutch for longevity and durability to compensate the tall gears I have in there..the clutch doesn't fully engage until Im doing around 10 mph now..lol
