[QUOTE="john998, post: 131662, member: 289"] In 55 years of Vincent clutches (50 heaven, 5 years hell) the problem has never been the primary clutch. The servo clutch has worked for me for touring, road racing, hill climbing and sprinting and pulling side cars on occasions with a trailer. As far as I can remember all the ones I have worked on had several degrees of movement between the plungers C11/1 and the pin C14. On looking through my used clutch bits I found one C11 that was a tenth of an inch longer than all the others. Have made up some of this length plungers that now are in contact with C14. As soon as the weather improves I will find out if this is an improvement. Having said all that if you clutch is working reasonably don't fiddle with it they seem to take a long time to settle back in. John [/QUOTE]
