burningpoo -> GST 3rd gear clutch mod (4/27/2008 6:45:08 PM)
I'm trying to find the clutch mod where you drill a hole, put a screw in and cut it. Then you put teflon on the outside edges. If anyone know's about this anything would help. It's to help 3rd gear kick in. Thanks.

Hey poo, I remember that one. it was CEN's forum site. dont remember it being here. But it is actually known as the 3rd gear shift mod.. When I get back from our monthly Crawling clinic at the LHS this afternoon I will see if I can find it... Edit Added: That mod was created by PPMan..

burningpoo -> RE: GST clutch mod (4/27/2008 10:22:46 PM)
Thanks, I'm going to try there now. I remember seeing it before I bought my GST. It was a slick mod I wanted to keep on hand, help out jamie and everyone else having problems. Good luck, didn't come up on the search[:'(]

You know how funny that is??? some of the problems I have been working on lately, the symptoms remind me of an epileptic dog with all the twitching

burningpoo -> RE: GST clutch mod (4/28/2008 2:56:40 AM)
I had a dog that was something like that, every time he smelled smoke he would have seizures. I can't believe how many things have CEN in them. I google my yahoo untill I had hotbot all over the place and I couldn't find anything. Movie time, my brain needs some off time.

I also remember seeing this 3rd gear mod in a forum with detailed pics, that was way before i had my gst, but i am having no luck in finding it either does anybody know where i can find this page

burningpoo -> RE: GST clutch mod (4/29/2008 4:04:16 PM)
I looked so hard I infected my computer[:'(], glad I have killer protection. I remember most I think. The one thing hanging me up is what kind of screw was used, wood or metal, and I think the hole he drilled got filled with expoxy before the screw went in. Maybe it's time for some ginkgo and coffee[:D]

That really sucks. That was a great mod. I just went through my old post, and besides from asking the same question more than once[:)] I couldn't find it. Thought there was a link in a old post

Thought there was a link in a old post I remember it, but not clearly. I'm sure it was a cut off piece of metal screws/bolts covered with expox to hold them in the shoes.

Expoxy screw in hole, let dry... Cut screw flush... Cover sides showing screw with teflon/resin and install...

I remember the mod clearly. I could do it competely from memory.. but.... The sides were covered with flexibe carbon sheets epoxied on the shoe after running 2 screws in and cutting heads off flush. Simple mod really, the point is to add a touch of weight an the carbon mat is to keep shoe together at high speeds..

burningpoo -> RE: GST clutch mod (4/29/2008 8:38:37 PM)
Good stuff, thanks.

Or maybe Cen could come up with slightly heavier clutch shoes that we could install [:D]

I think he came in from the side to keep more clutch on the bell. Good luck and thanks for the pictures.

The Real Dogman -> RE: GST 3rd gear clutch mod (5/1/2008 2:22:18 AM)
Yep was from the side, coming in from the side will also help the screws stay put and wont comprimise the integrity of the shoe..And keep more clutch surface in contact with the Bell!! Speaking of Bells, The Bell Buddies will be ready tomorrow. Thinking of having them Hard Anodized too. What do ya think..

burningpoo -> RE: GST 3rd gear clutch mod (5/1/2008 2:25:15 AM)
Sounds good. I should have the money in 2-4 weeks, unless the wife will pay[:D]

The Real Dogman -> RE: GST 3rd gear clutch mod (5/1/2008 6:10:36 AM)
Sorry no color choices, this hrd anodizing has only one color, kinda like the JP2 pipe!!
