| On my 1953 HD5G the clutch pull lever will slip out while in motion. I have the pull adjusted to about 48 pounds. There is no slipping, just disengagement. Anything I can do? The pull for engagement feels normal but the push out for disengagement is slight. Thanks! |

evidently the clutch fingers are not going overcenter to lock into engaged position . Open inspection cover on right side and while someone activates lever see the position of the shifting hub and bearing housing in relation to the lever arms ------------- Faith isn't a jump in the dark.

| I think I understand that. It would be adjusting and equalizing the over center of the clutch levers. Is that an easy adjustment? |

I now notice grease zerks on the "fingers". Should the splined shaft have grease there? |

| The zerk is for lubrificat the sleeve on shaft and the greace hose is for the bearing in the carrier and can see to much greace on brake cluch and hoke cluch shifting |
