Member Contributer OnFire Posted February 1, 2018 Member Contributer Share Posted February 1, 2018 Turns out my grabby cold clutch is still not fixed after bleeding the clutch system. I ordered the EBC kit CK1218, which comes with 8 discs, 7 normal + 1 with the larger inner Diameter. Looking at the service manual for the 04 VFR800, it shows 9 friction discs? Does anyone know if that is correct? How many friction disks do I need? Thanks, Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer VFROZ Posted February 1, 2018 Member Contributer Share Posted February 1, 2018 From memory, when I replaced the clutch on my 01, they were all the same size, all 7 or 8 of them. I know the 00/01 5G's have the same clutch as the early 6gG's. A lot of the parts drawings , including workshop manuals show judder springs, which is why there are different size plates to fit over them, but the late 5G doesn't have them. I believe this is also the case with 6G to 2012. Also note that you should replace the clutch springs at the same time, they're cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer OnFire Posted February 1, 2018 Author Member Contributer Share Posted February 1, 2018 Thanks guys. Looks like there is lots of conflicting info out there. I have seen a parts fiche on a different site that only shows 3 discs :( I'll just rely on EBC having it figured out and having the right number of disc in their CK1218 set that matches the VFR. I'll report back with what I find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Dutchy Posted February 1, 2018 Member Contributer Share Posted February 1, 2018 The fiche shows less plates in the picture, but if you look up the part (#8), you see qty 6... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer OnFire Posted February 2, 2018 Author Member Contributer Share Posted February 2, 2018 Got it - Thanks Dutchy! I was just saying, I had found other fiches that showed 1 (not 6) as the quantity. The link you provided was very helpful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer OnFire Posted February 6, 2018 Author Member Contributer Share Posted February 6, 2018 yup, 8 discs it was - 7 + 1; if anyone wants to see pics let me know. Thanks again for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
