On my 3rd clutch in 2 years. Lots of life (pad) left when break occurs. Probably 4-5 hours of use. I try to keep roller bearing clean and lubed, but maybe not as often as I should.
Is this a known weak part or am I doing or not doing something to cause this recurring failure ?

Stop trail braking.
Larry, check the drum. If the drum has significant wear on it, the shoes will have to open too far to reach it and it will break the clutch.
My clutch woes continue.
New clutch lasted about 20 laps.
All 3 pads seperated from the housing.
Bad glue?Working with distributor in Canada for a warranty replacement.
Seems there have been some manufacturing quality problems in recent past.Factory is sending me a warranty replacement part. Kudos IAME.
Pads that seperated from the clutch are still in good condition. Wondering if glueing them back on somehow would be successful…or a bad thing to try. Any suggestion on a type of glue?
