Consumer Description

DRIVE GEAR (CLUTCH GEAR) FOR OIL PUMP, CAMS ETC. BROKE SPIDER WASHER (RETAINER CLIP) AND CAME LOOSE STRIKING BACK OF CLUTCH BASKET WHICH KEPT IT FROM COMING COMPLETELY OFF WHICH WOULD HAVE CAUSED ENGINE DESTRUCTION. GEAR SHOULD HAVE HAD MORE TORQUE APPLIED AT FACTORY TO NUT AND RED LOCK-TITE APPLIED TO THREADS. SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALL. REMAINING 1/3 OF BROKEN SPIDER WASHER COULD NOT BE FOUND IN OIL SUMP. REMAINING LO PIECE COULD ENTER TRANSMISSION WITH POSSIBLE LOCK UP. PROBLEM WAS NOTICED BY NOISE WHILE RIDING 02/19/16. REPAIRED BY MSP CYCLES, DECATUR, GA AT A COST TO ME OF $343.22. SINCE I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER MOTORCYCLE I'LL CONTINUE TO RIDE THIS SV WITH A QUESTION AS TO WHETHER THE MISSING PIECE WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS. THANKS
