    Clutch pivot ball clip

    Does this look right? The metal clip behind the pivot ball is very loose. The clip easily rotates so I'm worried it will fall out?

    Now I'm looking at a photo of it, is the spring on top suppose to press against the clip insert? Maybe I bent the spring when I removed the fork. (I pulled it off, didn't know there was a clip insert).

    Clutch pivot ball clip

    I'd have expected the spring to have a bit of pressure on the retaining washer, but not enough to stop it turning. The washer would have to come right back to the plain part of the pivot before it could fall out, so I wouldn't be too worried.

    I'd probably try to squeeze the clip up slightly so it has more pressure, but there's always the chance it will crack/break when you do that. Not a drama providing you've got time and access to spares.

    Cool, all good then. The Spring is removable so I took it off and bent it in a little. Now it has a little pressure on the washer clip thing. Feels much better now. As long as I'm not missing any critical parts.

    Sounds OK to me, but I'll caveat my response with not having worked on a LT85 (LT95 is very similar setup though from what I recall).
