Well I’m happy to share that I finally got it figured out. I had to flip the conical spring washer around and it finally fixed. On an off topic, I finally got this blaster running… and holy cow it’s fun. For insight, we decided to rebuild the engine when we found the balancer gear broken(we’re...

Trying to revive this again as I’m still stumped on this. I did realize I’m missing the conical washer, so I installed that, and still no difference.I also tried a different spacer. I can tell it shouldn’t move because it doesn’t move with stock parts on my other blaster. I also installed a...

Bump on this. I saw someone replied to my YouTube video saying I had it installed wrong but had what installed wrong? Is it typical for the input shaft to move that little bit without the basket installed? Is the basket and washers supposed to pull that input shaft tight when installed? If I’m...

Alright, so I need to rebuild my top end on a 98 Blaster. Right now its totally stock, but I took the engine apart to fix an air leak and noticed the cylinder and piston were both pretty thrashed, but I was in a hurry as I was trying to get it ready to go ride and threw it together. I got it...

Aha, thank you for the info. Just did this on one of my blasters, and fixed the sheering issue I was having. Thanks!!

Double post but new topic, on the upgraded blaster I am concerned about the input shaft movement. The whole shaft moves even when the clutch basket is not on the shaft so it’s not anything to do with the spacers/washers for the basket. Will it affect anything? What would cause this? I think I...

Okay so I checked all that little stuff and everything seems right, the only thing I don’t get is adjusting. Right now working on the stock blaster. I run the adjustment rod all the way out, hold pressure on the clutch rod as far forwards towards the front of the bike as it’ll go, and turn the...

Okay so if I’m not using stock clutches (the rebuilt blaster has new wiseco clutches) then I don’t need the spring. I have the spring in the stock blaster but dunno if I have it matched with the correct fiber but I might just get rid of it in that one as well rather than trying to figure out...

I have that service manual and followed it. The fibers were soaked before installing them. One has a stock ball and ironically one has one from ace hardware because the other was long gone because I didn’t realize it when I first rebuilt the engine. I will have to check the alignment of the...

Yes the dots have been aligned

Now no matter how far I put the adjustment rod for the clutch rod in the clutch does nothing.. frustrating!!

Update, I noticed on the blaster with all the new parts the shaft the clutch basket moves in and out which seems to prevent the clutch from working properly, even moves in and out without the basket on. The older one we can seem to get it close but the bolts don’t seem tight enough (I don’t have...

Hey everyone. I recently rebuilt 2 blasters- one to upgrade and one to fix an air leak in the case. The first one I changed it out all new wiseco clutches and basket. 2nd one is all stock, didn’t change anything other transmission related, and it was all working properly. On both I left out the...

I’ll go ahead and reply to myself on this one, looking at one of my other bikes I realized that’s just how they sit which is strange to me but whatever works I guess. Maybe my key shearing was a fluke

Hey all, I’m in dire need of help. So I recently rebuilt this engine and I sheared a brand new woodruff key, thought maybe I just installed it wrong but now it seems it doesn’t fit right. This is a Yamaha woodruff key, in a brand new wiseco crank shaft. It won’t let me upload pics but it barely...
