Replaced clutch plates and clutch springs. Broke one of the bolts that holds the clutch springs in place. Replaced with new one. Took about two weeks due to work, rain, and parts. Also removed tire and cleaned and lubricated rear brake. It was sticking. Adjusted read brake, and chain alignment and tightness. Handlebar wobble gone now. Changed kickstand spring.

Tightened the axle nut. Found that an engine mount bolt was missing a nut and washer. Removed sprocket cover, foot peg mount, and gear shift lever. Bolt was loose. Removed bold and went to Home Depot. Purchased M10x1.25 nut and M10 washer (came in pack of 3), I believe they were zinc coated. Installed on the bike making sure to use anti-seize lubricant. Rode the bike and every thing felt fine, with the exception of the fact that the clutch is slipping, especially while the bike is cold. It gets better when the bike warms up. No loud clanking. I think what fixed it was tightening the chain, but making sure the engine was secure certainly helped.

Removed front tire and checked/adjusted front brake. Front brake is still in good shape. Re installed front tire and investigated weird rattling. Removed sprocket cover and saw weird wearing on the top part. Suspected chain too loose. Tightened chain. Forgot to retighten rear axle, will do first thing in the morning. Low sided the bike on the way to put it away behind the house by locking rear tire and going sideways. Bent left foot peg. Will try to fix tomorrow with hammer.

Heard a weird noise last two rides, decided to change oil. Noise started since washing the bike with pressure washer. Kick stand also sliding down. Noise most prevalent in fifth gear going between 50-65mph. Hopefully oil change fixes it.

Changed the oil with Jeremy. Can't remember exact odometer. Put in 2 QTs of oil as opposed to the required 1.6 QTs. Also tuned the brake and clutch cables. Changed the chain not too long again as well.
