Barnett Clutch Install

Disclaimer:    I can not be held responsible for anyone screwing up their bike or accessories in attempting this modification.
While it worked well for me, I can't guarantee other people's workmanship or prevent their mistakes.
You undertake this at your own risk!

Having clutch slippage issues? Or, perhaps you just want the confidence knowing you have a high-performance clutch?
If so, and you decide to spring for the purchase of a Barnett coil spring clutch, here's the instructions for how to install it yourself.
These instructions also include installing a new, stronger oil drive gear (used in the Warrior, and post mid-2002 Roadstars). I did this too, since my Roadstar was a 2001. Apparently, they switched to using the stronger Warrior drive gear sometime mid-2002.

Rather than re-invent the wheel, I'll simply point you in the direction of where I found the instructions.
