Clutch Sheave on Yamaha YDRA
I had been noticing some intermittent 'clicking' from the rear area for a few weeks. Today it went 'bang' A race car friend of mine examined the smaller piece and said it looked like it had been cracked for some time before it finally broke apart. I had about 300 hrs on this clutch. Can the outside sheave be replaced (riveted) or am I into buying a new complete unit ?
Thanks as always for your advise |

Re: Clutch Sheave on Yamaha YDRA
Got to talk with Don today - apparantly this is a common issue with the 4-rivet sheaves. They make some noises/clicking once cracked and prior to exploding (as mine did). Yamaha has now gone to a 6-rivet sheave. Gez - one call does it all - found out the 'why' and the replacement clutch/belt is on the way. Don Plowman is a great resource for these carts - thank you again Don.
