There are drawings on the websites where they sell parts. Try grubee.com. The clutch is easy on my starfire. Remove the retaining screw. Unscrew the clutch plate adjuster. It comes off and there's a spring and behind it the clutch itself. A bar goes to the opposite side where there is a lever which pushes it back and forth. Push it towards the gears and it opens a little. Release it and the clutch and the clutch plate are together.
 
thanks, those sites helped alot. bikes almost done i just have to wait for my chain tool now to shorten the chain. unless someone has a method to do it with out the tool.

save the master link (it has a clip on it.) But I have to use a grinding electric hand tool that you can get for about 30 dollars. Get the one with the five inch disc. Then you grind off the little nub which links it and voila, the chain falls apart. Try not to hurt yourself and wear goggles. GEt the right length for sure, though.
 
dremmel will work. can use a punch or nail to tap pins out after ground.
might carry extra master link with you.
half links are well worth having.
install the master link right. with master link on top,open end tword rear.
i think,good luck
 
wal mart -- many carry chain tools -- around 8 bucks
one is not needed -- can use grinder or file and punch or nail
but we are only talking 8 bucks here -- and a fast trip
makes the job so easy.......

i drilled a hole into my table vice and another hole on the opposite side , were i put a pin just drop the chain in , line the punch pin up with the chain pin and close the vice pushing the chain pin out into the hole on the other side , works for all dif sizes .
