i found that it was the clutch cover. i have the basket in right though i had sure of it, lol. i have disassembled and reassembled it like 5 times trying to figure it out. i finally found that there was two places that it was making contact with so i filed them down and it works just fine now. the resaon for taking the bottom end apart was to replace all seals and inspecting bearings. i removed the bearings and regreased them, then put them back in. just having problems getting the rings in the cylinder again. i took the piston out like a morron putting the pin in. ill post a pic tomorrow after i get home, have duty today.
