When I pulled my clutch cover this washer/shim/spacer was tacoed over wrapped around my clutch arm.
ID is 18-19mm, OD 21.5-22.5 (because it’s oblong now), thickness is 1.01mm best I can measure.
I have no clue where it goes. The bike is running fine, I was just going to install an EBC clutch/ new part# OE springs.
The old clutch wasn’t bad, the springs in the 96 are weaker I’ve heard so that’s why I decided to replace them. I got the clutch kit at dealer cost so I was just taking advantage of a deal, again, no known issues. I haven’t had the bottom end apart in maybe 80-100 hours, hopefully no major damage was done and it found its place quickly. I have even done like 6 hare scrambles on the bike since then. Nothing unusual in the oil to speak of. I was hoping to have it back together quickly since riding season is going by fast so this really blows.

Thanks in advance!

Looks like it came off the kickstarter shaft. Probably just slid off unnoticed as I was trying to line everything up and get the cover on, it’s been years but I think it didn’t go on smoothly the first try so that makes sense.

Think I can get away with just leaving it off and replacing it next time I’m in there? It’s not like the shaft is spinning with the motor. I’ll have .53mm more play on the gear teeth mating surface and my cover may wear. I may have to use 2 washers next time haha. Unless I’m missing another good reason?

Ah, it seems you figured it out! I am not sure if leaving it out will cause any issues or not, but if it was me I would order one up and replace it while you've got it apart. Now if you're planning on riding tomorrow or something like that I'd say to h*** with it and just run it until I get the part.
