A thought....IF the problem would be that it were either nr.1 or nr.2 that did occur, I guess I would have heard a "rattling sound" when the gears were riding over each other. The thing is that I can't recall that at all...all I remember (after regaining consciousness ) is that it just slipped. No particular strange sound or noice....the resistance in the kick just disappeared and the knee went backwards....impossible to stop.....that could lead to that the slip occurred according to nr.3....Electricmayhem wrote: ↑Sun Jun 12, 2022 6:00 pm If I've understood the mechanics correctly there are only 3 places a slip between parts can occur which would cause the Kick to suddenly loose all resistance while kicking
Either between...
1. ...the Kickstarter Gear (on the kickstarter shaft) and the spring loaded Starter Gear (that also operates against the Clutch gear)...or..
2. ...the spring loaded Starter Gear and the Starter Clutch Gear...or..
3. ...the fiber/steel plates in the clutch it self...due to too little pressure on the plates
Correct?
Any reflections to my reasoning?
