clutch spring

Hi All,

You know the seal in the front of the bike in the clutch cover that always leaks? It's the tiny seal on the shaft with the clutch lever in the front of the motor. Well, the other day I was replacing that seal and in the process I destroyed the spring on that shaft. I now have the new spring, the seal is fixed and I am ready to put it back together but I need to know the trick in setting the shaft in the right position with the propler tension on the spring. How is this done?
