well i've noticed this problem happening alot over the past 4 1/2 years with all the 400s i've rode with... in the center of the clutch pack there is the clutch lifter (rod with a mushroom on the end) that connects to the lever arm... now out of atleast 15 400s that have been here over the past couple years atleast 10 have broke... mine personally breaking twice... my friends just broke last night and i just want to see if its happened to alot of other people...

yeah it cost 6$ for the part and 10$ for the gasket to fix it... but its a pain in the arse...


i'm glad i'm not the only one that seems to always have one break...
