Motorcycle Repair: 1972/73 Chaparral ST80 Bullet, clutch friction, friction plates


Question
QUESTION: I got the bike as a basket case,butchered wiring,missing stator cover/shifter hardware,ect.
 I have gone through great lengths to get the bike where it is now.
After somewhere in the $400-$500 spent on parts,this old critter shredded one of it's two clutch friction plates.
 It is a 80cc Fuji engine with a 4speed full manual tranny.
 I drained the oil and pulled the clutch basket,got it open.
Heres where things get difficult,the clutch has 6springs,two steel plates,and two friction plates.
 I cannot find the style of either sets of plates for that specific clutch,and it only requires the friction plates be changed.
Any ideas?Am I going to have to change & update the whole basket?
Or do you know where I can find an exact replacement?

ANSWER: This is a long shot but try Steves Cycle Salvage in Tifton Ga. 1(800) 622-9253 It is about 7 acres of new and used parts and they are linked to 100 other yards and send parts al over the united states.

Answer
I dont know of any that direction but you might try (bikez.com) they have over 19000 bikes for show as to what some of them looked like there may be a link off to a salvage yard close to you,Im just not sure. There has to be a lot of salvage yards out there,this may turn into a internet search party,sorry!
