i had to take out a set of shims/washers on my seconday clutch to loosen up the belt to keep it from squeeling in the primary. I only had two shims on each bolt. removed one/bolt, problem solved. Can I order any half size shim to put bck on the clutch so that I have the perfect setting? I currently only have one washer/shim on each bolt on the secondary.
 
There are two size shims you can use. You probably have the thicker one on now.
 
yamaha has 2 shims one is .5mm and the other is 1mm, I have used the ones you get at a hardware store and they are not as hard as the ones from yamha if you need the part #'s let me know and i will post them
 
yeah part numbers would be great. like I said there were (2) shims on each bolt. they appeared to be the same size. there was a slight color change between the two shims. one set was more black in color and the other set was a little more grey. I dont know if that means anything at all? i took the darker set off. I now just have one set of shims on. it fixed the problem.

So from factory does each bolt have (1) 1mm shim and (1) .5mm shim? My thinking is that if I had (2) 1mm shims on each bolt and removed (1) from each bolt then I could add a set of .5mm shims back on to it and make it perfect.
 
no need for part numbers i looked them up in the microfiche. looks like there are just 1 set of 1mm and 1 set of .5mm from factory. thanks guys
