Fixing a Broken Clutch Yamaha R6 | Oregon Motorcycle 2019

Found a litle surprise while changing the clutch in my 2004 Yamaha YZFR-6.
Filmed on my iPhone Xs Max and GoPro Hero 5.

were there any differences on your friction plates? some forum said to put purple tabs in first, then brown tabs, then end with a black tabbed friction plate.

Thats exactly how my 2018 clutch is. From the show room floor to about 9300 mes my clutch went out. I just replaced my clutch yesterday ... if I pull my throttle all the way it slips .... its been slipping and I replaced my clutch its still fucked up.. I have to drop my bike back off later hopefully u figured it ouf

I see you as well work on your bike without gloves 😎

[@OregonMotorcycle]

Ya I don’t mind getting dirty;)

[@virtuallyrs3673]

Can you remove the clutch cover without draining the oil on the 09 R6? The dipstick is lower than everything as well. Did you have any oil come out?

[@OregonMotorcycle]

Virtually Rs you should be fine not draining the oil. No oil came out when I pulled my cover.

[@kalebmartinson]

ive never done a clutch so i cant really say shit but i hear you should because like in this video the dudes friction plate was busted and the debre can get in the oil.

[@OregonMotorcycle]

JinglePoops this busted clutch was done by the PO. I had just changed the oil right before this repair and didn’t want to again. I literally had like 500 miles on this oil.

[@kalebmartinson]

@@OregonMotorcycle tru i dont blame you im gonna change mine just to be safe

[@TheFastPack]

You should change the oil when you replace the clutch

[@tweetchris46]

funnily enough i just watched "chase on two wheels" latest vid, where he finds his clutch on the CBR1000RR is in a similar conditon...ie more pieces than it should be .

[@OregonMotorcycle]

I seen the IG post on that.

[@kunalkhanna985]

There is another Fz6 video with a broken friction plate too!!! My Fz6r is 43k miles run and no clutch issues to report yet but I bet I ride on suburban backroads at 40 mph and that does not kill the clutch plates as much as city stop n go traffic like New York or Boston downtown!!!

[@Kcking74]

This is not the 2019 r6.

[@OregonMotorcycle]

Very good.

[@delilahzx10r47]

Did u not find the missing pieces lol. Same thing happened on my r1 all the pieces made there way into my pickup. Id pull the pan if i were you

[@OregonMotorcycle]

I recovered all the pieces :)

[@delilahzx10r47]

@@OregonMotorcycle good to hear, hopefully mine didnt get harmed, my pickup tube/screen was almost jam packed.

[@OregonMotorcycle]

@@delilahzx10r47 Geez. Ya I put another 8-10k miles on this bike after I replaced the clutch and have since sold it.
