Honda elite 80 clutch ???????

[ZMUD]

I have a 2001 honda elite 80 and I was riding the other day and blew a belt. I got it home and took off the belt cover to find a shreaded belt and some damage to the front clutch plate cover. The face of the front clutch has cooling fins that extend past the ramp. I broke every one of them off. SO my question is do I need a new clutch plate or can I get away with just a new belt? Are the fins that extend that important to cooling? Any suggestion would be helpful.

I would be more concerned about the balance of the drive face rather than its cooling capabilities. It should definitely be replaced.

Agreed, that thing is bolted to the crank and balance is very important.

I finally got around to fixing the elite 80 and I put a new oem drive face and belt on. I put it all back together and 0-15 it takes off good 15-25 it dog's and 25-42 it picks up speed. Before the belt blew it ran great 0-42mph no problems. The carb is clean and everything is back together right. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHY I'M DOG'N AT 15-25MPH?

That's because the new belt and drive face isn't slipping (while is what wastes your old belt) and when the stock rollers move out before the engine hits peak torque its a dog until then. Lighter rollers would cure that.
