Well I did it. Cobrafreaks bearing conversion and advice paid off. My first attempt at grinding the honda shaft was a no go. Took too much off. Took cobras advice and jb welded the shaft and tried agin and got it almost perfect.Have a little bit of clutch bell ring. After the grind and reassembly I still had sevier clutch grab which i thought was due to the bell. The clutch grab was due to the clutch shoes [see photos ]The clutch grab is gone now after I took apart the clutch and noticed how rusty and dirty the clutch shoe pins? were and the holes the pins go in also[not shown] the three bolts and springs were nasty too. I took Cobras advice about adding washers to these bolts for a higher rpm grab. These washers are real thin.Since I had the stage 111 tranny I was able to rob the washers since both clutches are similar. Also I put a little bit of grease into the clutch shoe pins holes. Verdict Success Me happy now.No clutch grab and jerking and getting smoother too
4g bearing success "finally"

birdmann, change the spring for higher rpm engagement and it will smooth everything out. I just got the black spring from www.hotrodminibike.com that raises engagement to 3100, and my 98cc cruiser takes off much smoother now.
