went to wrap my helix to an 80 degree today and in an end result after it coming loose and smashing me in the face i broke off one of the little black ramps?(they looked to be wore anyways) on the secondary clutch.
just wondering if these are changeable or do i have to buy a new secondary???
 
yep, they are very cheap and easily replaceable. Your dealer might actually have them in stock.

You might as well buy all 3 and have new ones. they do eventualyy wear out. I forget the number but there is alot of pressure riding on them.

about 15 years ago, my grandpa had a 1972 polaris 400 charger that all 3 broke right off. There were pressed in on the model so he had to use a torch to melt the stubs out where they broke off.
 
Yep, they are replaceable like Tom says, there is the original ones from yamaha which are graphite buttons, the ones you get from like dennis kirk and such are just plastic, thats why the yamaha ones cost 3 times more, youll see what I am getting at when you check the prices. These buttons if let go worn will affect the clutching rpm, upshift and backshift, so youll tear your hair out trying to find the problem and its worn out buttons. good catch to fix it now.
