Reply to "Reverse grinds Clutch or Shift linkage?"

I may be spelling it wrong but the term is Dercel or Marcel or Duracell or Marcel Merso.
One of them gotta be right


Yup. It's Marcel

quote:
That is the curvature of the spring-metal portion of the clutch disc at no load. It is there to aid in releasing the disc from the face of the flywheel and reduce the chatter in a street clutch. If the disc has none then it is a competition clutch and has different characteristics. It sounds like your discs have none.


It does have Marcel. It's a version of the McLeod Street Twin. It actually has great hold and feel. It's not chattering at all, just hanging up slightly. I suspect the floater is hanging up just enough such that the Marcel can not completely overcome it? I drove it for a half hour the night before last and for the first time it was perfectly fine when I came home. No grind of any kind and I didn't change a thing other than it got driven a little easier than usual, so perhaps a little less heating. Being brand new, maybe it just needs a little breaking in, and I know how to do that. Big Grin

I'll keep you posted. I have to get a friend to come along so I can check it hot. Thanks for the input.
