Love how you tell it as it it! Please Never sugar it! I changed my oil on the engine your taking about every 1,500 mile. Why!? Because I noticed at 1500 it was shifting HARD. So with that, I would drop my oil every 1,500! My bike and its clutch HAS ALWAYS Been a Bastard, I’ve fought it for 70k + miles! I could Never put in neutral while in first gear stopped anywhere in the world. The only way to put it in neutral while running was to turn it off‼ And we all know how that works out, as soon as you’ve turned it off the traffic will move ahead a car length or two! Or while in gear stopped with your coaching, it would want to pull you forward and you would have to hold it back with your feet, arms, body, etc.🤬 over the decade I’ve owned the spike in the thousands of adjustments. I’ve done to the clutch. It’s been a bastard and I’m saying that lately‼

Well one thing I can promise you is this bike is gonna move and move fast. You are gonna be able to put it in neutral with no issues and bang second gear as much as you want and as hard as you want.

Appreciate it. For a full rebuild, labor is $2700. Since we are in there, might as well do a built transmission, which is about $1k. Then it is just any additional parts. I would say somewhere around $4500, give or take. His bike will be good to go for another 20 years.

When the screw bottoms out, you back on 3/4 to 1 turn and you will be fine. When you do that the nut isn’t able to be in the threads? If so then something is wrong with the clutch or install. What year bike and what clutch did you put in?

@lhcycles13015 ай бұрын
@@KornyTheDragon you're welcome. You can simply leave it on the kickstand over night. Pull the exhaust and you can pull the clutch cover off with minimal oil loss. I use a pet pee pad and it may get a few drops. Also, if you get into the clutch and see things very dirty, like fiber material, you will need to remove the oil pan and clean your sump screens. All can be done with it right on the ground, although a little harder for the oil pan. We have the clutch video as well as an oil pan video to show you. If you are near an oil change, then I would drop the oil first, then do the rest. Also, we now sell clutch kits for a great price. You can email me at [email protected] if you need.

Did you replace the wave washer and inspect the main drive plate? The oiling is immediate but if you didn't replace the wave washer and inspect the main drive plate, that could be your issue. Sometimes it gets grooved. Also, the wave washer is a spring and we believe that due to lack of oil, it gets hot and also contributes to the issue, which is why we always replace that.
