clutch slipping.... now wont shift..


Recommended Posts

its not hard to load quads into truck at all.....whether its stuck in a gear or not.....

 

 

*ride quad to back of truck and shut it down so theres about a foot of room from the tail gate to the front bumper of quad.

 

*either put bike IN GEAR.....or leave it in gear if the things mis-shifting.

 

*walk to front of quad and grab ahold of the front suspension arms......lift and apply backward force.....the trans will grab and allow you to push against it without it slipping out from under you...

 

*continue lifting until the bike is straight up and down and resting on its rear grab bar.

 

*walk to back of bike......put one foot through rear grab bar and squeeze clutch in and you can walk it forward til your tires are in the bed.....then lean bike forward.

 

*RELEASE clutch and the trans will hold the quad from rolling out of the truck while you position to lift the back of the bike up by the grab bar.

 

 

I had to learn the easy way of loading this stuff up when i started riding with my fiance.......120lb girl makes for a real treat when your having to load 2 quads and all your supplies...... if it wasn't for learning this way i would have cried....

oh no no....im definately all for fixing it yoruself. and if you ask on here bluebanshee....you may find another one of us members that knows more about these motors that is in your area. Also the bikes do not really like to shift with the motor off.....to be honest...they blow trying to shift without the motor running.

 

My suggestion is for you to get a clymers manual as they are indespensible when it comes to working on the bikes. The not wanting to shift issue could be a problem of either too much load on the clutch because it is worn too much or it could be a out-of-adjustment ecentric screw.

 

let us know what you find....

I have a dollar says you have a deeply grooved basket not allowing proper disengagement , maybe engagement also. Also possibly out of adj. When you have it apart you can file the grooves on basket. Closely inspect the external shift mechinism for wear and adjustment.

 

NOW FOR MY RANT :evil: If you are to cheap to buy a Clymers, find a download manual. I'm tired of the age of entitlement where everyone wants everything handed to them. Understandably the search function isn't the best here but it does work OK. If nothing else scroll through threads manually. Follow threads, you'll already know what's wrong and how to fix it when it happens to you. These machines don't take a rocket sceicencetist (sp) to figure out, ain't nothing more than a big weed wacker.

 

If you have more money than sense, then be my guest and take it to my favorite, prefered mechanic. Ask for him by name at the service desk, his name is Ben Dover. :jesterlaugh:

 

RANT OFF :cheers::bolt:
