    And yes that it ground aluminium all over my clutch pressure plate. All the factory riders are doing it.

    Oh and don’t forget to add tiny particles of aluminium to your oil either to help prevent it thinning out in this cold weather.

    Shall I go all in and dry sump it too? :laugh:

    Still, the bike is 5 weeks old, probably time for a top and bottom rebuild anyway :dry:

    Thats what would have happened to Crashes XR650 on Micks Birthday ride last year he was lucky he heard the bolt head gouging away at his clutch cover, when we tipped it on its side and had a look, the clutch spring retaining bolt had broken and was happy putting aluminium all through his engine.
    End result was a strip down and clean out plus a refresh on a few bits and pieces.
    Best of luck Motto ;)

    Holy shite

    you certainly do have a sense of humour considering what you have just done

    clutch and housing are cheap but ……………….you know the rest

    Good luck

    5 weeks old try your hardest

    Jesus bad luck mate :ohmy: That’s a full rebuilt it reckon, shit! That fine aluminum gets everywhere :blink:

    Did the clutch pressure plate bolt come loose or did it snap first?

    Bugger, I hope it’s a pain free fix mate, surely it would come under warranty.
    Best of luck with it.

    Reckon rocket really? Mate things happen when they are assembled by robots or humans bolts break, castings have faults shit happens that’s why there is warranty, policy etc it’s not as though its a Honda ;)

    Again good luck Moto

    Ah that sux! I would recommend replacing gearbox bearings after that. Metal particles got in between the cases and bearings on my CRF and you will never get it out without pulling the bearings out.

    Being only five weeks old and the fact that moto hasn’t pulled it apart and played with the clutch, you would be a bit shitty if husaberg didn’t do all they could.
    Its clearly a manufacturing fault, isn’t it ? :unsure:
    Keep us updated Moto.
