Broken nipples // '76 cb 750 F //
« on: September 16, 2009, 08:10:21 PM »
Today I added myself a new problem to my list by accidentally breaking one of the threaded nipples off my pressure plate.  I'm gonna head to the salvage yard tommorow, but my question is this: are all the clutch assemblies universal on SOHC fours from 69-78?

i did the same thing on my 76. used the one out of a spare 78. it was all the same except the clutch plates and assembly order. after 3 times of looking at my haynes and putting back together to just find i still had no clutch .i put it back together the way i thought it should go and bam! a little adjusting and i was back to 30 yard smokers.
