Default Zoombicycles centrifugal clutch kit

I bought the centrifugal clutch kit from Zoombicycles and the instructions they have are not very good. I wanted to know if anyone knows how to install one of these kits.

Welcome to the form hiber
Just go to ZOOMS sight and click on the clutch kit. There is a PFD download on how to install it. It is really simple. If you have any problems just post and I or someone else will help out...POPS

I E-mailed them about and they gave me a phone number to call. I called them and they helped me a lot. They told me how to install it and they were very friendly and helpful. I will be installing it tomorrow or the day after. Thank you for your help

It is an automatic clutch. When your motor is at low idle, the clutch is not engadged, but when you open the throttle and the motor increase R.PM., the clutch will automaticaly engadge,....like the way a mini bike works.

I got my centrifugal clutch kit from ZoomCycles, and I machined away the taper in the clutch and added a keyway so that it would not rely on the taper to hold things together.
