THE BIKE HAS A HEAVY DUTY HINSON CLUTCH BASKET IN IT.....there was no issue with the original....THE ORIGINAL WAS REMOVED AS I HAD AN AUTO CLUTCH IN THE BIKE FOR A SHORT TIME AND WHILE THE AUTO CLUTCH WAS IN THE BIKE, THE ORIGINAL BASKET WENT INTO A DIFFERENT BIKE(I HAVE MORE THAN ONE CR500). THE HINSON(WHICH HAD LESS TIME ON IT THAN THE ORIGINAL STOCK BASKET) WAS SITTING ON A SHELF IN MY BASEMENT, SO IT WENT BACK INTO THIS BIKE WITH THE STOCK COMPONENTS.
