Big Mike NY Posted December 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 (edited) Ok😀 awakening a dead animal here..😄 I never got around to getting the clutch looked at, so I dove into it last night myself. Clutch fibers we sticking to the pressure plates pretty severely. I took them all off and pried them all apart. The fibers left a mark on the corresponding pressure plate. I assume this condition is what made the clutch stall the motor out when trying to get it in gear? The rod and ball are not fused together but have minor signs of wear. I am going to buy a new clutch kit, rod and ball. Will this remedy the clutch stalling out the motor? Is there anything else I should be looking for while it is apart? Inner and outer basket brand new, absolutely no wear or grooves... Edited December 20, 2020 by Big Mike NY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
375hp banshees Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Get a ceramic ball ( unless you have a pancake) just cause... it probably was just from sitting( being), dirty & 1/2 dry they'll stickSent from my SM-A505U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

375hp banshees Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Rust marks?... is that ball perfectly placed or welded?Sent from my SM-A505U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedder Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Interesting, I've had clutches "stuck" to the point that the only way I could separate them was to slide the plates apart but yours look as though the fibers had adhered into the surface of the steels. What oil and how long had the bike sat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike NY Posted December 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Perfectly placed. Ball and rod came out separately.. could be rust or the fiber markings. The plates are smooth to the touch, those marks you see are not raised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

375hp banshees Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Moisture surface rust/stains or like Ted said fiber Sent from my SM-A505U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tedder Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Maybe a light rub with a scotch pad could rejuvenate those steels 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawa110 Posted December 22, 2020 Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 I have zero clues i tie my clutch lever to the handle bars to prevent plates sticking as I have to many toys and might not start/ride one for 9-12 months. I probaly causing clutch springs to become weak. I really don’t know. I do soak my clutch plates overnight in oil with space between then(not just stacked like pancakes) prior to installing in engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
