Clutch plate - how thick?

[rob18362]

Hi, I have got the gearbox out of my 1999 1150GS for replacement and am checking the clutch whilst it is accessible. The friction plate measures 6.20mm thick which is well within the minimum of 4.5mm. Will probably refit it but can anyone tell me how this compares in thickness to a new plate.
Cheers, Rob.

They do tend to vary slightly when new - But your plate is thicker than some i've fitted new .

Thanks Steptoe,
I'd intended to replace the clutch as a matter of course while the box was out but thought it looked too good to ditch.
By the way can anyone advise the cheapest place to get clutch hydraulic fluid lines?
Cheers.

Funnily enough, [URL="http://www.ukgser.com/forums/showthread.php?t=77160&highlight=clutch"]THIS[/URL] this is still ongoing.

I know, I know. Items have been back and forward. Fitted, changed, fitted changed, returned, altered, fitted etc etc. You'd be amazed the difference one tiny alteration has, on a piece of pipe and a banjo bolt.
