Pressure plate not spinning?

khu996 · 15-Feb-2005, 20:10

I had a larger slave cylinder fitted the other day, and have only just had the time for a quick ride. Whist out, I noticed that sometimes, when at stop in neutral, the plate wasn't spinning like I'd expect it to? Its still rattling a merry tune, but not spinning?

Is this normal/OK? Is there anything I need to worry about?

Is that with the clutch lever pulled in or let out?? If the clutch is in, then it's normal. If it's with the clutch lever out..................you wouldn't have been riding it

Cheers Nelly. Don't know if I'm imagining it, but I'm sure it used to spin with the lever in or out!

It may have done. Disturbing the clutch components etc. could have been enough to free up the bearing etc. It only needs a bit of drag in there and it'll spin in or out...........
If it's working ok and it's not dragging when you pull the clutch in, just enjoy
