[bebop]

Hi i've just stripped out my clutch on a 1976 GL1000 American import,still in frame,when i opened the casing,there was first a gasket then a metal shim,about 1 mm thick,then a second gasket,has any body found the same thing?Not sure if i should rebuild the same or just with one gasket?Any ideas,thanks

Maybe I am reading this wrong? But seems to me the question was about this pic,

Looks like only one factory gasket. I have read about shifting issues with non-OEM gaskets, and having to add material to get a good shift. Might be what the previous owner was dealing with.
