Make sure to re torque it after running the motor.

Like said above 80 ft lbs and retorque after a ride or two. Also make sure the crank and clutch mating surfaces are clean and dry, use some really fine scotchbrite and blow clean. do not use brakekleen or any cleaners that will leave a residue.

I always purchase an service manual when I buy a new toy. They are very valuable resource for these types of questions.

If you can afford a clutch kit and other goodies do yourself a favor and pick up a service manual too.

Sorry for the rant.

It blows my mind why guys don't spend a few bucks for a service manual, even if they don't really do more than basic service. A manual is a fantastic way to get a better understanding of the sled for when you really need it, when you're broke down in the backcountry.

I take it you can just buy one from the dealer? Or is there another source

as long as we are on the subject of putting on clutches, can anyone recommend a clutch puller ?
