Thanks for including me! I'm in south Ontario, 🇨🇦
I'm new to the DL bought this bike knowing the clutch is a bit rough! Otherwise a great machine. Looks like I will need to update the clutch basket to eliminate the vibration under acceleration. I'm interested too know more about the half shim option. I have good welding skills and equipment! Cheers

Welcome to the family. I am happy to see people keep the older bikes roadworthy.

My dad taught art and industrial art at our tiny jr. High and High school. By the age of 15 I could stick weld and gas weld/braze. I couldn't imagine getting along in life without a welder these days.
And with MIG equipment so cheap these days, I encourage anyone with even modest interest to get an inexpensive machine and have a go. Pretty much as easy as running a hot melt glue gun, but with molten steel.

While you are contemplating your clutch repair options, look into WERKS Parts
I have just watched his videos on You Tube!

Welcome aboard Kneedrager and thanks for joining us! What were you riding before the Strom?

Where in Southern Ontario are you? (It's a big place!)
