Fitting LTH clutch - order?

[alanscottj]

Did the retaining clip fit well? All the recent kits I've had were supplied with a clip that seemed quite a few mm short, leaving one end unsecured in use and you can't use a standard one because the LTH one is 2mm thick. My own [about 5 years old] has a clip that fits fine. I've emailed LTH to see what they've got to say.

I opened her up to fit a wavey washer and yes, there is a considerable gap between the ends - spoke to Mike at Torbay Lambretta where I bought it and he checked it out with LTH - it is correct apparently. Anyhoo, the star that he is for after service care, he is putting me an MB one in the post for free that will go all the way around and will need to be trimmed as it is the opposite, too long rather than too short. Peace of mind

Not sure if you know this but if you grind down the outside circumfrence of the socket used to tighten the nut it will fit in and you can remove the clutch like a cassette type should you want to get to gearbox etc and save time on stripping plates out etc.

Yes, i heard a rumour that you can do this - will find a socket that fits for future tinkering
