Anybody know where I can find a Clutch & Disks For 68' Triumph T100 500CC?

Hi Millie,



There's several on Ebay.



Here's a set of Both for $60,,plus shipping(I'd guess $15~20,,,it's a heavy package??)



That price is gonna Very hard to beat.



It says ''Made in USA''...not Taiwan stuff.



Those folks are fairly Hi Volume/Hi Rated Ebayers,for what thats worth.

You may want to also consider replacing the Springs.



Stock-type springs work fine,,,and preserve the silky smooth clutch feel that suits 500's so well



You'll see Barnett Plates,Springs offered in most places.



That's Premium stuff,,''The Best'',,,,but I dont like them for Regular,Normal use in your bike.



The original clutches are GREAT,,very strong and durable and troublefree.



Hi-Perf clutches,,,have their own quirks



I often used ''stock'' clutches in 650's w/ 750 kits on them in Pro Racing for many years with No Probs.



And 100's of very strong street bikes also.



Exact same parts as the 500's clutch.



You may want to Check,,or replace the Rubber Cushions in the Center Hub,,,they're cheap and fairly easy to change.

Here's some ''Retail'' places you can order online,,,and get knowledgeable help.



The websites also have some useful FAQ's/Info/Pictures,etc
