Vesrah were the original supplier for a lot of Kawasaki parts, clutch, brakes etc. So they are just reproducing the original stuff. It is generally available, (Reproduction decals, etc) and it works! I don't have a tie-in with 'em, just trying to help!!

The part that blows the most is yanking off the brake lever and continualy replacing the gasket on the cover..Although I've gasket sealed it every now and again when one was not available to me.

I replace my clutch cover gasket about every 6th or 8th time I take the cover off. Use some sealer on the engine side, and anti-seize on the cover side to make it easier.

I use sealer on the cover side and anti-seize on the engine side. The cover is one piece and even if you split the cases you can re-use the gasket, it's already on the cover.

well guys I sanded down the tabs and put it all back together and it is still making that noise when I pull in the clutch lever, could it be the needle bearings on the clutch hub.????

Thats a bummer mike. and to think I was going to toss a large box of nos clutch disc's and fibers in with the h2c

Is the basket loose on the gear?

You are killing me, That's ok, I can take abuse, This whole clutch thing is wearing on me. And you are the first to chime in after I re assembled the bike. You need to be a hero and send me a clutch basket complete with needle bearings and bushing. Then just bill me to your satisfaction. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I have paypal.

Back on the stand it goes, drain Oil, remove kick starter, remove brake lever, remove oil pump cover, remove oil pump,
remove clutch cover, Man this is getting to be the normal thing with me. Then I will check if its loose. I should have noticed if it was.

Mike...
did you inspect the inside of the clutch cover to see if there are any "witness marks" from the clutch-plate tabs hitting/rubbing/chirping??

If there aren't any marks, its probably not going to be the tabs.
