I recently got a 1974 Ct70 project. Got her running the next day and noticed a few problems. I have tried two carbs, and the bike will run with either. The OEM one will be getting a rebuild soon.
Anyways, when the bike is stopped, I can rev the motor up fairly high. I then shift into first, and it will go maybe 5mph at the most. Shift into second, then maybe another 4 or 5 mph. Shift to third, and the engine will begin to bog. I have a feeling this is the clutch but I am not 100% on that.
Background info: Clutch never rebuilt, carb never rebuilt, stock engine size, adjusted valves/points, etc.
If this is indeed a new culprit for a clutch rebuild, can someone point me in the right direction of getting the parts? Do I just need friction plates and the RH side cover gasket? Should I get HD springs?
Thanks
