Thank you for being the first person to ever successfully explain to me how a multi plate clutch actually works! Great video. Thank you.

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

Thank you my friend, that's a great honour, am glad you enjoyed it and it wsa a pleasure to help!

@SEANO1810 3 года назад

@@Moonfleet41 another great vid think i need to do this on my old GPX its just started slipping and cable is fully adjusted, was just wondering if it would be ok to use copper grease on the gasket as thats all i have at the moment? Thanks Del

@1970955 5 лет назад

Changed so many clutch's over the years but never though of making a dowel from a bolt to Aline the cover,That right there is a life lesson i will surely use in the future , Thank for that Del

Good morning my friend can tell me if the part cod honda 22000 MCJ 305, fits in our CBR954 2003 I'm from Brazil

@thomaswarren2699 4 года назад

Fantastic! Very informative. It's always reassuring to hear things like "be very careful to.." or "make sure you don't.." It means you have the experience to know how to do it wrong, and make sure nobody else does. Top man

@atotalmoron 5 лет назад

Thank you for sharing all of this knowledge and experience. I'm about to replace my bike's pack at 55,000 miles because she slips under hard acceleration, and knowing what to look for during the process is very valuable! Too many videos out there showing a friction plate swap with no other info.

@livingon15wheels78 5 лет назад

Del, just watched this great video today, which gave me the confidence and know how to do the clutch on my 1983/Suzuki gsx 250. It’s only been four years in the rebuild, but finally took it round the block today for first time, and realised the clutch wasn’t performing. Cheers!

@johnhowells-vaughan5519 2 года назад

Well, that was the first video I have watched from you and I want to say I've thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you. I really appreciate how you've done it - sensible explanations, valuable tips from your years of experience, no fluff, no annoying background music and clear step by step how to's. I will be watching more from your channel. Fantastique!!!

@Moonfleet41 2 года назад

Thank you for your kind feedback. Welcome aboard!

@gb92104 4 года назад

I've watched a bunch of different videos about this clutch job. You are the first to tell of the importance of inspecting the basket for wear. I wouldn't have thought of that. You're a font of knowledge in all your videos. Not just telling your viewers what to do, but why. Thanks for all the help, Delboy!

@Moonfleet41 4 года назад

You are welcome, glad you enjoy the videos.

@davespragg4570 3 года назад

Great video clear and concise . Goes over all the important bits you need to look out for.. The bit about using a bolt cut off for alignment is a method I've always used particularly when assembling a split engine case it's so easy to knock something out of place if you don't use guide dowels .I've used bright bar and threaded it in several lengths and sizes m6 , m8 etc. His work method is the same that way that I go about a job. On a bike and even my own you have to do it RIGHT no half measures . I don't do half jobs and this guy does the same . All clear instructions that are easily understood for those that are not sure. One important tool for use on any bike is the torque wrench . Buy a good one I have a 1/2 " and 3/8" plus reducing adaptors to 1/4" . It's too easy to over tightened bolts in an all aluminium engine cases. The gasket method fitting is domething I always advocate doing , trying to get bits of old gasket off an engine in the bike is a no no from me. Look forward to any new videos I enjoy watching a master class that's good for the novices to learn from doing their own maintenance and getting it right.

@moehamp5477 5 лет назад

You are a legend mate I would never have attempted changing the clutch before watching this video it was so precise on a step by step which helps all us untrained bike owners thanks again del 5* mate

Mr. Delroy. I´ve followed your channel for years and I cannot tell you how thankful I am. In fact, you taught me to also share my knowledge (investments) for free but I am not going to do any advertisement. The reason of my message is to let you know that this weekend I will attempt to change the clutch on my Kawasaki Zephyr 550B. I had a slippery clutch so I just bought what I needed online. I am not sure if I will succeded, but if I do I would like to dedicate my repair to you, good sir. I will follow your instructions and I am confident I will make it happen. Thanks once again and I hope you keep providing great videos.

@Moonfleet41 9 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for your kind feedback Alec, it's good to hear that the videos can inspire you to get involved in your maintenance, im sure you'll make a perfectly good job of it, take your time and enjoy each step, it should be an adventure, not a chore. Have fun and good luck.. Del.

@gregoriousgilbert519 3 года назад

Watched your video about changing brake pads after having a dream of a mate telling me they need changing. Checked the rear pads, they have about 4mm left so put them back. But the front pads were well worn down to less than 1mm, so they were changed, easy enough once figured out there were two clips holding the pins in. Thanks alot

@clivewilliams1406 5 лет назад

Very informative and it made the whole process less daunting for the novice. As regards the oil filter, I always fill the filters with fresh oil before spinning it on as it means that the bearings get the oil sooner than waiting for the pump to fill the filter and I always spin the motor up with new oil without the plugs in to generate oil pressure with the minimum load . Being a horizontal filter is no problem as the internal valves prevent the oil draining out. Also, chrome filters are a bad deal and only bearable for bling motors where the filter is exposed. The chrome finish does not allow for the heat to escape and indeed it can absorb heat, which on your bike has the exhaust and the rad immediately infront of the filter with any inlet air being ducted through those hot parts onto the filter. There is a very good reason why the OE part is black and that is to get rid of the heat.

@mcgregorglasgow9810 5 лет назад

I’m just starting a restoration on a couple of bikes that I’ve picked up on the cheap, one of which is a 1980 Suzuki 750. This is a completely new endeavor for me. Clutch work was one of my fears, even basic stuff. Thanks to you I’m breathing a sigh of relief right now. Thanks for your tutorial.

3rd time I found and watched this Video. Big Thank You to you and Camera person ;-) Helped me replace Clutch on VX800. There's a moving back-torque limiter, 4 short bolts go there . . . . . tricky! Used the long ones for clutch sleeve hub to hold it in place first. . . . . through Draiper 1/4 torque wrench accross garden, used "Palmaris longus" torque setting. . . . Now to get fuel pump out of the deepest caverns of the bowels of this POS. . . . . . scunn'urd Front cylinder intermittent/not firing. . . .checked spark and tried to balance Carbs. . . . . vacuum return to pump next step.

I needed to replace the clutch plates on an 1989 Honda PC800 and the shop was backed up at least a month. This video gave me the confidence to do it myself. Unfortunately I had a tough time with the old original gasket, but I found other tips online to deal with it. Great commentary on the video. Well done!

Dear Delboy, I have to say I have learnt a lot just watching this video! I have a 2019 suzuki V-Strom 250 and after about 15 minutes of riding the bike, the gear shifting becomes very difficult. So I'm going to do this myself but all thanks to you for giving me the courage!

@JDnBeastlet 5 лет назад

Another great video and congratulations to you both. Always a pleasure to watch, and Del, you have the gift of explaining things in a simple way without talking down to your audience. I have replaced clutches on both cars and bikes and would prefer to do the job on a bike any day! I know this is a motorbike channel, but I thought I would mention that your gradual star pattern tightening of the clutch springs is also applicable to lug nuts on the wheels of cars, trucks, trailers, etc. When I was in my teens my Dad taught me how to torque wheel lug nuts properly. He learned himself at a young age from a heavy equipment mechanic, who explained that fasteners torqued in this way can be relied upon not to loosen... especially useful when those fasteners are difficult to access. Typically after hand tightening lug nuts I will lower the wheel to the ground, then tighten all of the nuts in a star pattern to 1/3 of the torque spec. Repeat the process at 2/3 of the spec and again at 100%. Nowadays it's common for car and RV repair shops to warn you to check lug nut torque after driving for a short amount. With this method, that's not necessary; I've done spot checks and have never found a loose lug nut. I also like the tip for headless bolts as dowels - very clever! FYI a good video on how a motorcycle clutch works: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-agLa0A8GAfc.html

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

Hi John, you're absolutely right, back in the mid-80's I trained as a bus fitter, so that information is bang on correct... the standard practice these days, after torquing in increments as you explain, is to torque check again after 24hrs... and at the company I currently work for, it's actually a legal requirement, the vehicle can't go on the road until it's been done. Great to see that old traditions never change, means they must be right aye... Thanks for sharing your insight, keep in touch, all the best, Del

@bertzx9r894 5 лет назад

A great video Del. Clutch changes are one of the simole jobs that people are too afraid to try due to a lack of information. You sir have played a roll in fixing that and saving people money!

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

Thank you very much Bert, it's usually just the fear of the unknown aye, its always more reassuring when you see someone else do it !

@martincarey8620 5 лет назад

Great stuff Del, and I believe your first clutch replacement video?!!...Hopefully this will be one of your big hits over time! This was the first job I had on my first sports bike, the clutch went bandy within a month of buying the bike... Self taught, no manuals to read, and really quite simple, and definitely something any novice can tackle!

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

Sure thign Martin, simple enough task aye mate? No more complicated than a set of brake pads! Hope you're doing well mate, catch up in the Spring aye?! D&Px

@davejohnson2051 5 лет назад

Great job Del, ive always feared messing with the clutch as i thought it would be a massive complicated job,.it looks pretty easy, Thank you for making it look so easy

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

Hi Dave, it was pretty simple as it was the first level of getting involved with your clutch, it's a lot more complicated to stript the entire unit right back tot he bare shaft, but you don't need to do this, unless you've got far bigger problems, this is really just the consumables check, the bits that wear out, like the friction plates and the springs, a bit similar to changing brake pads in the calipers, rather than stripping the whole caliper down... it's how we learn aye mate, a little at a time!

@Moonfleet41 Год назад

Glad it helped!

@PhilOsGarage 4 года назад

Good tip about the manual, there are occasionally some things which can catch out even experienced mechanics. Prime example, FZR clutches need the pressure plate fitting in a particular orientation (dot on the plate aligns with a triangle on the basket, and unusually there is a specific way around for the steels to go, rounded face inwards, sharp edge outwards. I've not seen that on any other clutch, but ignore either point and the clutch will slip.

@barryprettyman7766 4 года назад

Great Video man. Even the soaking of the plates for 24 hours. All of us from the riding community appreciate your work!👍💪👊

The first time you have to spend scraping gasket material off an engine with all the bits dropping in the oil ways, you'll soon learn to grease it so it comes off in one piece lol Thanks for your kind words, much appreciated!

Aye! You’re speaking my language now to many’s a gasket I’ve had to scrape off and it’s a painstakingly nasty job cos you don’t want to damage the surface cause an oil leak it has to be flush,grease!so simple! Another lesson learned Aye cheers again boss

Bloody brilliant. Thanks for this. Great advice. I’m just about to replace the clutch on my Kawasaki GPX750R. Thanks again!

No problem 👍

Having only ever done clutches on cars, it made me uneasy watching you get the clutch plates covered in oil! Goes against everything i know haha, great informative video sir!

@Moonfleet41 5 лет назад

It does indeed mate, I think only BMW bikes have a single plate dry clutch...! I guess it's just a differnt technology !

@czondag 5 лет назад

I think most Ducati's have dry clutches too?

@@Moonfleet41 you take a lot of pride in what you do. Didnt know i could use grease on a gasket face. Good idea!

Just replaced the steels and friction plates on my 2019 XT250; did you know that two of the six friction plates are 'heavy duty' and have to be positioned in the middle of the pack ?. AND I uncovered a big discussion as to which way the steel plates should be orientated- ie smooth side in or out... as long as they are all the same it seems it is probably OK but there are two tribes on this issue !
