Time for a clutch! How much should I expect to pay the stealership for a new clutch and install? Also, I think I may need my carbs cleaned and/or re-jetted....is this expensive? Thanks for the help fellas!.....and girls, hehe.

 

I'll do it for the beer n' conversation.

 

SOLD!!!

 

For my 81 KZ 750 LTD (4 cylinders/4 carbs) a cleaning/rejetting ran $400
The clutch I might try to do myself with a Clymer manual
(and -- I am not a tool guy)
Good luck with both jobs

 

I'm gonna say that carbs is likely easier than clutch if you plan on doing it yourself. I've done carbs. Easy peasy, bacon greasy. Clutch... I'd be more careful... Way more.

 

I'd prolly leave my self a 3 hr window. Fairings, oil, clutch, adjustments, etc. Not including the pad soak in.

 

or call your dealer and ask for a quot

 

Agreed, call the dealer, ask for a number then add 50%, or have someone smarter than you show ya how to do it (you will be required to provide at minimum lunch or beer so negotiate beforehand)

 

Do it yourself, unless you have a slipper clutch. Make a note of how the clutch discs come out. Let the new ones soak for about an hour. Re-stack 'em and put em back in. Clean the surfaces of the gasket area with a clean rag with acetone or alcohol, and make sure there's NO oil residue on the mating surfaces. Use Permatex on both sides of the gasket, re-mate, snug the bolts (don't squeeze out all the goo!!), let sit for a day, refill with oil to spec, and you're good to go.
Carbs? Pretty much the same deal. I agree with Deuce; easy.
Don't pay some dealer to mess up your bike.
My 2 cents. Save your money for the best parts you can buy.
