This could be a stupid question.
Situation:
-Engine in frame, no oil for about a half a year. Functioned fine before teardown. (nothing on the engine touched, bc if it aint broke...)
-chain/rear wheel not hooked up, still building frame bits
-foot clutch is hooked up, when actuated it moves the pressure plate about 1/8th inch or so. Plates are free when actuated and can be moved in and out by hand.
-when in gear and actuated, i can't spin the front sprocket by hand
-clutch alignment marks are fine.
I dont think this is right. It makes sense that if the clutch is working properly, when in gear and clutch fully depressed, i should be able to spin that front sprocket.
Is there a minimum amount the plates need to move to work properly? I'd think that being able to move the plates when disengaged would mean its right.
Or is this all fine...
