The only way to check the spring is by taking it apart which requires no special tools. However, re-assembling does require special tools. So unfort. you cannot check without re-setting the tension. CNW has a ONE07 tool to do this. I would start with the free stuff first and see what happens. If it's not that, then purchase the tool and a new spring and go to town. The spring is seen on the CNW website. Its just a laser cut or waterjet spring, but if you over tension it, which is what was happening for a while there at UK factory, the spring is garbage and the engine is noisy. Over tensioning that spring is easily done. If you can live with clacking noise, that spring can be changed never or one day at your convenience. It wont harm the engine being sloppy. BUT>>> if it's the RING GEAR, thats a whole different story. And the real only way to check is by removing the clutch basket. >>See my manual on that.
SO>>> Be warned!!! When you go to replace the spring, be in a good mood with lots of patience :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: It's an easy job, just need some dexterity to set that spring tension and not go past a tooth.
