Good evening everyone,
I have a 66cc BGF motor with about 12 miles on it. It resides in a beach cruiser. This is about the 15th or so bike I have built. I was on my way back home from work tonight when the clutch started to slip, then die ( weee you wee you weeeeeee motor sound) as if I was squeezing the handle a little. With the clutch handle in or out the motor would idle. Stop, motor idles. I hoped that the flower nut came loose. I pulled over and took off the clutch plate on the right. Flower nut fine. Set screw still where it should be. I took it off and looked at the pucks. All good. The clutch handles seems to move the plate in and out, so I tightened the flower nut. Still the same. Tightened it as far as it would go. NADA. Took off the clutch actuator plate on the left side. Seems fine. I read the other clutch posts and will check woodruff keys.
This is a new one on me. Any other help would be appreciated. By the way, I appreciate all the help you all give to the hobby, sport, obsession related to these kits. I love this site and the dedicated people that keep us running. If you ever need help in Gainesville, FL, call on me.
