clutch judder

[Shaggybus]

when leaving bb yesterday, had a clutch judder in 1st gear.
will it be clutch on way out or will it be tramping on rubbers on engine bar.
cheers in advance

Could be that your clutch bowden tube is too tight. There should be some compression along the length of the hose that gives it an "s" bend. That's often a cause for clutch judder on these, it takes up the "bounce" as you engage the clutch.

Got a similar thing on mine. Not used it for 8 or so onths, been at the paint shop, but now, sometimes, when its cold, i get a judder in 1st, then after a couple of de clutches, its ok. Bowden is fine. I'm wondering if my rear main is just starting to weep, and getting the clutch.
