Thank you for this video!!! I was so frustrated I was going to have to tear apart the case again to figure out what was going on.... instead of that, this fixed it.... Now my new clutch works perfectly!
I have a 2022 honda grom with the same issue. I changed the clutch springs and me lever had no tension. It’s the same concept as the four wheeler. Thank you so much for this video
You nailed it. I was following steps in a rocky mountain atv video and they never once mentioned this as a common occurance. It was like install clutches and roll which didn't apply in mine. Thanks again. Going to do this right now on my raptor 350 although i dont see the mark on my arm to line up with the case. Im sure ill get it. 👍
Just wanted to say thank you so very much for this video, saved lots of headache. I did the same thing you described, searched and found your video. Thank you.
Brother! You're a f'in legend and hero. This is about the 20th youtube video I've watched indepth to finally fix this problem I had after a full engine rebuild on my 2001 yz 125 dirt bike. Thank-you for making this. I had about given up. Life-saver. Clutch lever is super tight now and won't put the bike in neutral from gear while it's off, but I'm hoping this problem will go away once the bike is running and warmed up. Cheers!
thanks for explaining the clutch shaft has no internal resistance only that spring- I never knew one way or the other and this is the only video I found where you explain for the dummies whats supposed to be there!
Thank you soo much! This solve my problem completely. I was about to buy a longer clutch cable because it was fully extended and the adjustment and I could not figure out why. I made this adjustment and that’s all it took and now I have plenty of adjustment at the lever and at the clutch
You are great I am having the same issue with my motorcycle I was just thinking to open the RH cover of my motorcycle to inspect the issue but now I think this trick would definitely help me out. 👍👍👏
i have the cable adjusted correctly based on your video and there's plenty of pressure when you pull on the lever thanks to the heavy duty springs but the quad will roll fairly easy while in gear. Doesnt lock out like it is suppose to
It's funny they don't tell you to re-clock the arm in the manual. I figured it out on my own, but it wasn't till after setting it up wrong and scratching my head for a while and throwing around a few choice words! LOL... It's good to see, however that I'm not the only rookie clutch swapper. My problem now though is that my clutch lever is MEGA hard to pull. I just lubed the cable and as I figured it didn't help at all. I'm going to rip the whole thing apart tomorrow and see if the clutch boss is grooved. A couple weeks ago I found a grooved clutch boss on my YFZ, and "THEY" say a grooved clutch boss can really stiffen your lever pull to the point of ridiculousness. . So I'm awaiting clutch parts for the YFZ and its looking more and more like Im going to have to rip back into my raptor to see if the Raptor clutch boss is suddenly all grooved too. Seems like Feb/march are clutch months for me!!!!
The First time I did my clutch on my 2017 last year I was so frustrated until I realized this was the issue. I’m glad I’m not the only one that dealt with this issue... I went as far as ordering a new clutch cable only to install the new cable and still the same issue :) man I felt dumb when I finally realized what was going on ... Pretty basic but if you don’t know it can be frustrating.. Thanks for the video.
I Have an 07 raptor 350 that's I just picked up. Seems to ride really good but it's hard to find neutral or put it back in drive after going into reverse. So I decided to adjust the clutch then I find there's no free play in the clutch lever or clutch arm. Put some free play Into the clutch lever and seems to be finding neutral alot easier and getting out of reverse properly but now it goes I to 1st gear kinda hard. But I don't see a way to adjust the clutch arm on the 350. And its bugging me because i feel like there should be a little slack on the arm. The cable slides into a mount on the engine but there's no adjustment bolts there. And the clutch arm is super tight. Doesn't even wiggle a little bit by hand. Could my clutch arm be rotated too far clockwise? I think if it wasn't disengaged properly the clutch would be slipping but idk what that feels like because this is my first standard atv
Hi there I have a raptor 700r gytr edition model 2006 and experience issues with a worn out clutch .the two lines on the arm and the case does not line up from worn off clutch .can I remove the arm and reset the two lines for it to be right as I am running out of free play ....thanks much appreciated
Great video. Do you have any recommendations for a reliable top end kit for a 2011 model. I want to go 11,1 compression with a good fuel controller like a pc or dynatech and a stage 3 hotcam, possibly a big bore kit if there is some sort of combo deal out there. Any advice is appreciated thanks.
Hey brother quick question i have a 2019 and the lines are not aligned but they align when i put the clutch all the way in… but i have not changed my clutch, my quad just stop grabbing the gears. Is this what i have to do or do I need a new clutch??? Thank you!!!
Thanks for the video . Quick question I have a brand new 700r not even 6 hours of ride time. It will go into reverse but doesn’t accelerate forward when in gear. Could it be the clutches ?
Ok thanks. Are you still selling the temp Gauge, case saver and there was something else that came with it on Ebay I can't find it was it the ais plate
Having this issue on a 98ktm sx 2stroke. Instead the clutch goes inside the case. Havent found a service manual that explains the entire mechanism. 😅 help lol
Sometimes I have a hard time getting my raptor into neutral or 1st gear, have to rock it sometimes. Is there a cable adjustment that will fix this or is this how yamaha gear boxes are normally?
Hey my 2018 raptor feels like it’s lost power it runs perfect but when I’m in gears in the end of each gear it revs high but the power isn’t there any ideas? It feels a lot less torqy. I rode my friends 2017 and it feels a lot stronger and dosent rev out as fast
I did it and my clutch is so hard. I can pull lever only like half way. Did I messed something up ? Did I torqed the springs too much ? I belive i did 69 inch lbs
I just bought my 08 raptor 700, Im actually having the opposite problem. My lever down on the clutch is so hard to turn that i have to use a big wrench just to move it. It wears my arm out after just a short amount of riding.
ever find out why? having same issue in a yz450f 2007 any answers? just dif clutch platez and springs and lever now feels at least 25% harder to pull than its usual feeling
When I did mine the clutch pin turns then stops. I turned it so hard I broke one of the tooth’s on the clutch pin. I put all the plates on in order. I’m not sure why it’s not working. Any advice?
