I have been rebuilding my Garelli engine due to a crank seal. When I saw that the clutch that I had put into the bike about a month ago was crumbling around the lip. I was curious if anyone has had this happen or what exactly could be the cause.
Disintegrating Clutch?...

was it rubbber?
SABAT!
Re: Disintegrating Clutch?...
Yes it is rubber. And no sign that a rock or pebble had gotten inside to eat i up either.
Re: Disintegrating Clutch?...
This is what it looks like at the moment. Haven't decided if I am going to replace it or just ride it till it gives. First I need to try and determine the cause...
Re: Disintegrating Clutch?...
i would run it.
its probably was just broken before you put it in and then when it spun at 8k it broke off
i would clean out the inside of the clutch side with alot of carb cleaner and visual inspect it for peices then keep blasting
Re: Disintegrating Clutch?...
make sure you use nondetergent 30wt oil in your tranny.
Re: Disintegrating Clutch?...
I keep an eye on that... 30ND all the way... The rubber isnt brittle either.....
Re: Disintegrating Clutch?...
When I put it in it was pretty stable but of course there is always a possibility that it had a light fracture that I could not see. It is running a 30W non detergent.
