Default Well shit on me......

I was riding around with a buddy of mine, and cruising through the mall after hours on the way home, I make a turn and the sprinklers are on and the ground is wet, my tires spin so i shift a gear and it spins again but when it hits dry land its still sprinnin, and then i smelled clutch, son of a bitch! Does anyone know how much it would be to install a new one ? ive done it on tractors but dont know the torque specs on hondas. what id prefer to do is get a gsr tanny with the clutch, anyone know of a place to get these locally ? junkyards or whatnot......

how does spinning tires equate to "I need a new clutch"???

sounds like you need new tires

Why were you going so fast in the first place? Trying to impress the 12 year olds at the movie theater waiting for mommy to get there?! If I needed a new clutch everytime I spun tires I'd need a new clutch till 5th gear
