Not sure why 10 ft-lbs stripped those holes so bad unless your torque wrench is out of spec. The shop manual says 12nm (9 ft-lbs). Update: just upgraded my clutch, and I used a torque wrench set to 9 ft-lbs. It wasn't even as tight as I can easily do with one hand on a 1/4 in ratchet.
I do not know why either. I checked my torque wrenches and they seemed accurate. That said, they are cheapo torque wrenches. I have no idea what happened with this unless that clutch basket had been over torqued previously. It was a used engine and the clutch was slipped really bad. Maybe the previous owner thought tightening it down would help. Do not really know unfortunately.
@@mattstettler6131 the engine was supposed to be from a 2016. The washer was just one I had laying in the spare hardware drawer, I’m sorry I can’t give you any more info on that. Take that actuator into a lowes or something and start hunting for the correct sized one would be my next move.
Every single vehicle I own the first thing I buy is a physical paper service manual.
You will never regret buying a service manual.
I usually do. I haven’t on my grom or the donor though.

The torque setting you are referring to is the central bolt not the 5 clutch retaining bolts.
I looked all over and watched a dozen videos and they all showed those bolts torqued that high. Internet can be great but man it screwed me on that.
What year is this bike. Mine is a 2015, and i ordered the upgrades springs and the same plates. Also, that washer, you added do i need to do that?
