Got the clutch to grab, but for a new clutch the adj is out a ways. Builder thinks is the thick stack clutch.  Next time I change oil, will take a look.  Thank you all for the assistance...

Not me:)  Pulled the rod out and the Ace Ball came out with it.  Can see the other ball thru the seal.  Reinstalled the rod and its 1.75 long. The rod is 23 centimeters long, or just over 9 inches.  I'm still coming in short of the desired 1 7/8?  Are all the rod's the same length over the years of RD's?  No clutch pull at all even with the adjuster all the way in...

I appreciate the help.  It's been 30years since I messed around with RD's and I"m not getting any smarter...

The shaft sticks out 2 1/8th now.  So something is up?

Thanks and that's what I figured, Inserted a new ball (from Ace H:)) and pushed it home. The push rod now sticks pout about 1 5/8 from case.  Side cover on,  adjusted the set screw and free play, but now I've got no pull.  Pulling on the lever feels like I'm bending something.  I'm going to pull the right side and see what's up, unless anyone has a better idea?  Thx

Engine is back from a very reputable builder, and I'm trying to adjust the clutch, but I can't get enough pull to engage it at all.  Even with the adjuster screw all the way in and the cable screw all the way out, I get a little action.  Seems to me it may be missing ball?  Looks like the parts diagram shows two, one in the clutch basket (Right side of Eng) and another of the left side?  Don't seem to have one of those and I'm not sure where that one would go. The Push Rod protrudes 1.75 from the case.  Is it possible to Right side ball got got lost or potentially never installed?   Can I push one in from the left side ?  Thanks in advance...

It's has a 2V0 at least..

Not my bike.  Asked the seller for the 2V0 # and mileage clarification.
