Tonti stuck clutch

[HRC_V4]

I wish I could find the picture of when I pulled the clutch off my Quota, super simple, had it done in an afternoon.  Not in a big hurry on this project, I still have not order parts yet, so just working on it when time permits.  Spent an hour or so on it today, pulled the starter, front wheel and fender, clutch cable and then strapped the engine to the stand. Only three major steps next, front crash bar, center stand and transmission top plate.

The next steps..

The California II has been crabbed!  Not a bad job, it is giving me a reason to address a few things, I'm going to go ahead and replace the throttle cables, clean up some surface rust, deep clean a few hard to get places.  I have the clutch upgrade kit on the way, the clutch job transmission seal kit, rear main engine seal and a couple of other things.

Looks like I am missing the output shaft seal....

Does anyone have instructions on the swingarm install? I measured mine before I took it off, they were not equal side to side, which I thought was the way to do it, but with the missing seal, someone might have been in here before.

Just center it up and you're good. Run it up and down just to be sure something won't snag, but I don't think there's enough latitude for adjustment to cause any trouble.

The two clutch discs are stuck to the intermediate plate. I have not tried to separate them, but a fair amount of rust.  I'm sure it will all clean up.

The formal method is to use an axle through the support bearing in the swingarm that has a ring to centre on the outgoing axle of the gearbox. 

Horizontal adjustment is with the swingarm bearing bolts an vertical is by fixing the bolts of the underframe and the battery plate.

In practice centering the swingarm axle bolts (on the side) is the way to go.
