What are the dimensions of the clutch bucking bar?

[bob1352]

The bucking bar on my bike was bad. Being a novice machinst I need to know the length and diameter of the bar so I can make it. The bar tends to have a lose fit so I am just looking for a ballpark figure for a standard 2 stroke engine.

since i have mine out...

inches: 1.048 x.3125 or ~1 1/16 x 5/16

mm: 7.93 x 26.82 (~8 x 27)

1 - bucking bar should last pretty much forever
2 - bucking bar should not be a very loose fit in shaft

I'm guessing you failed to keep enough grease on it, so should look closely at the shaft to see if a new shaft is needed too.

I'm a heavy greater and I had my bucking bar collapse and disintegrate. With the amount of grease I used this should not have happened. I packed the bar hole and then pressed it in as far as it could go. Whiped the excess off and still had a failure. My guess is that it was a defective part.
