350x clutch ?

[Super350]

so i just put a new clutch kit in and was wondering how you guys torque the main clutch lock-nut up to spec (72-87 ft. pnds) when putting it back together. i didnt have a clutch holder so i just used the impact to get the nut back to where it was (eyeing the old punch mark) although it didnt seem like i had to use the gun long to get it there...maybe a couple sec. Anyways you think i'll be ok? Any tricks w/out having the holder? Thanks

Thats all I do , impact till I feel its right , but I have been doing it for a LONG time LOL and know when enough is enough .....

i put it together and at first when you started letting the clutch out just a bit (like 1/2 inch) it would start engaging but then after riding it for about 10 mins it was already not engaging until about half way through the levers range of motion??? is this just from break in or is it maybe the nut isnt tight enough?

Completely normal...Just breaking in...go ahead and adjust your cable to where you like it.

Just did the clutch on mine and havent really broke it in yet, but mine on the first clutch pull fells like it is lightly engaged a little but once it warms up it works fine.
