      You guys mention to remove the damper spring and damper spring seat, Do you re-install them? Because that was never mentioned or in the video? Please help

    What i like most about J & P Cycles videos....They encourage you to do the more simpler repairs and maintenance on your bike yourself!! And they instruct you how to do it step for step. Because of that i will always make sure anything i buy i get from J&P Cycles if they have it. My favorite quote of 2020...."NOW GO WORK ON THOSE BIKES!" that's priceless in my opinion. J&P Cycles ROCKS!!!!!!

    So I just replaced my clutch plates out and it was so super easy. This is my update as of 3/22/2019. Thankyou for this video you just helped me save alot of money. Plus it feels badass doing your own work. Thankyou brother keep up the great videos. I went with bandit clutch plates/friction. 2014 streetglide special. Since my bike has hydraulic clutch it was super quick to do.

    This is a great video for my older FHLTCUI. My wife wanted the dealer to do it because she doesn't believe me how easy it is. You know how they say more people die in hospitals than anywhere else? Well, it's the same with dealers. If I can do it myself, then it's better that I do.

    Bloody yippa jack, Eazy Peazy, I do most work in my 05 Dyna TwinCam 88 Carby. Will be doing a clutch pack soon, as it's just slipping now, and I'll be hooking up a camper trailer, plus Cam Case upgrade with Feuling Cams, plate, hydrolic, pump, bearings, so this setup will be great for towing camper. Only want 515 cams, as I need the torque down low and NOT up top end flogging it on the streets, but sitting back and just seeing the country side around oz and tasmania. Cheers and thanks for the Video upload, Cheers, Teddy. Keep the wind in ya face, and not up ya ass.

And if I pull hard on the clutch handle suddenly can feel the handle goes to the the bar and it gets kind of loose. immediately I have opened the transmission cover and found that the ramp has overranged and one of the balls has felt out the ramp. Actually plan to replace the cable and inspect the clutch basket for any abnormality with the disks and pressure plate mechanism. Any suggestion is always welcome! Thanks
