now, correct me if im wrong, but with the cover off and no pressure on the clutch. the springs alone should have the plates fully compressed right? there should be no slippage between the plates right? i should not be able to spin the clutch in gear and move the bike without it turning the outer basket and the whole motor over right? i just want to make absolutely sure that this clutch is shot before i put a brand new one on it. im also wondering, am i not able to catch all the gears cuz the engines not running? that was never the case on the race bikes but maybe since this is set up a little different? what i wouldnt give for the service manual to this thing.......
