Threw some 12 paddles on the cub this weekend and went to the river to see if I could get some traction. Once again that answer is no, launching in 2nd no traction, shift to 3rd, clutch slips, shift to 4th, clutch slips. I hadn't noticed it till Austin rode it and said somethin about it so I rode it and felt/heard it doin it. What I expect my problem is is that the arrow on the clutch arm is pointing outside (to the stator side) of the arrow on the case, and I think with the ASV lever bein kinda goofy and having so many damn adjustments that I'm either not getting a good full pull to release the clutch (because it is adjusted so far to the stator side) or it's not returning all the way and grabbing. The 2nd one sounds more like something that would cause it to slip like this but I could make arguments for both cases. I'm gonna pull the cover off and measure the fibers just to check that they're ok but when I installed them they looked more than good.
Also with the ASV lever it seems like it's hard to get any free-play in the lever b/c of the springed lever setup so I'm not 100% sure how I'm going to re-set it up.
I just found it odd to have a slipping clutch with a lockout, good fibers, and some paddles that weren't putting full strain on everything.
