Oof. Better bolts now anyways!

I unfortunately did a carb clean before this video. I won't need to do another one anytime soon, but I will record it when I do. I can tell you that you need to remove the air box to get it out, and uncrimping the oil mixer line off was a bit tricky. The throttle slide un screws from the top and slides out. Otherwise pretty standard. I soak all my carburator parts in warm water with pinesol overnight. Then rinse with water and dry with a blow drier. I bought a rebuild kit, but found out the float needle was the wrong size so I reused the old one. Hope this helps!

Thank you. It's a bit tricky. You have to put the rod in the case and hold it in a way that compensates for the rotation when it rotates on to the rack. Took me a few tries. Otherwise you can remove the screw that holds the lever on the rod and then just reinstall it in the right position.

@@nicholasniechayev4037 thanks for your reply I cant seem to get the teeth lined up should there be movement once it's on it moves left and right a little once I get the cover on

@@funfishing8195 sounds like you almost have it. It should rotate as you set the case into position, and the rods gear teach line up with the rack. Does it rotate freely in the case? Is the rod pushed all the way down into the case? Is the case clearing the kick start axle? Have you tried rotating the rack in the clutch basket so it lines up better? Keep trying new positions till you get it, and don't give up!

@@nicholasniechayev4037 the rod poppes out of the case pretty easy is that normal it moves little clock wise and little anticlockwise onec all together just doesn't seem right

@@funfishing8195 I just picked up an ‘83 the other day as a pit bike and I’m having the same issue with the rack release rod being able to easily be pulled out of the case , even once the teeth are engaged. I Just asked a good buddy today , who’s more of a motorcycle mechanic than I, and he said I need a new seal on the rod. He said that was a common thing with Suzuki’s.

It should slide back on. Make sure it's clearing the kick start shaft and that the clutch lever rod is positioned right. You might have to try a few different rotations. Don't give up!

Try lubricating the clutch cable. It should not be too hard to pull.

It's called a clutch lifter arm. eBay is your best bet.

You might be able to get away with one from an rm 80 but check carefully before buying.
