New member needs knowledge about my FT500 project
« on: October 31, 2016, 03:32:24 am »
Hi.

I have a project with my father making a FT500 Cafe racer.

I bought a spare bike and got that motor renewed.
 - New piston
 - New seals
 - Renewed cylinder.
All in all, a pretty new and fancy engine :)

I finally finished the bike set up and mounted the engine.

THE PROBLEM.
The starter engages but then immediately jumps back and spins without turning the engine.
It seems like the clutch is broken in new engine and i want to take the old clutch in the new bike, how problematic is this?

Hoping for some good advise to my problems.

Best regard
