what side of the engine are the clutch plates located? the clutch cable goes into the left hand side of the engine so does this mean the plates are on the left?

i think on the few that i have stripped they have been on the right if they operate from a push rod set up cause most electrical / magnetos are on the left dont know why thats just what i have noticed

Japanese bikes usually have the clutch on the right. I have never seen one that isn't.

Edit: I should learn to read the thread title...

What bike have you got? The drive chain on the Rotax 650 engine used in the Pegaso and F650 is on the right: the clutch is on the left for that engine with the generator on the right, and may also be for a few other European bikes.

Listen to hazza, the clutch cable goes in the left witch operates the clutch push rod also on the left the clutch basket is on the right hand side. drain oil off take right hand casing off to expose the clutch housing should be four bolts going through the middle off springs undo these to expose the plates.(important)there are 4 friction plates, 5 plain plates and 4 anti-drag plates take note of what order they come off then put new ones back on in the same order.
not sure how true this is but i've heard ov people soaking the plates in engine oil for a night or so but i cant see wot this could possibly do hope ive helped let me know. follow wot ive said and you cant go far wrong honestly good luck
