    Clutch Cable Help

    Got an 2006 R3 and the clutch doesn't want to fully disengage when at a stop. It will clank around until I'm at a stop and sometimes it will want to keep going and I'll have to keep the brakes engaged, sometimes it's like it should be. I noticed both the handle adjuster and lower adjuster are...

    Clutch Advice Needed

    Just wanted a few opinions, I've got a new clutch and springs set to fit over the winter, is it worth changing the detent spring or anything else while i'm in there. No signs of trouble other than some clutch slip reported when I had a tune on a dyno earlier in this year, so what do you guys think?

    turning the clutch lever adjuster?

    hey guys, i've already set the clutch adjustment dial to 4 but i'd like to have the clutch handle release even closer to the handlebar than it is with the dial on 4. with arthritis in my fingers a closer release to the handlebars would make it easier. i only found in the user manual about...

    A Rocket in a Clutch...

    The weather in Michigan is beautiful this time of year. Sunday was a perfect day to ride to Lake Michigan. I must have rode about 10 miles from home and the clutch cable broke. Did I mention it was beautiful and a Sunday? My biker friends were off riding and having fun. Me, I'm waiting for...

    Clutch adjustment

    Do you guys notice a big difference in clutch cable free play when the engine is hot as opposed to cold ? I generally check the free play before every startup and am finding that the 3mm at the lever when cold becomes nearer 5 mm After a run ! When the engine has cooled , free play once again...

    Clutch reassembly troubles (Paranoid maybe?)

    First things first. I'm reassembling the clutch and I noticed some wear from the springs on the pressure plate. Should I worry about this or is this typical? It's quite hard to say exactly what is the depth of it. (See pictures) Then I noticed what appears to be a hairline crack in the inner...

    Minor clutch adjustment

    Hey all, hopefully just a quick question. I put on a set of Kuryakyn ISO grips and they are a bit thicker than stock. So now i find that getting into neutral is a bit of a pain. (I slid the grip off as the glue failed and have no issues putting it in neutral with just the handlebar) Which end...

    Oil change after new clutch and gears?

    Hi all. Do you think it's necessary to do an oil change after a new clutch and gears? I.e. put a few 100 miles on it or let it go the full service interval? Thanks again.

    Do I need a clutch?

    Ok, so I finally got to take my new 08 R3s out for its first ride yesterday, and notice led that it was ****ed tricky to shift into second- it felt like the clutch wasn't fully engaged and I was bouncing off the gear back into neutral, particularly at higher revs (4-5k). I read all the posts...

    Setting the Clutch

    All: I have been rebuilding the engine (replaced the output shaft bearings) and am nearly done with assembly but the clutch is not operating correctly; can someone let me know what needs to be done. 1: the clutch was NOT touched in the motor, only the cable and lever were removed. 2: the...

    Clutch adjustment question

    I just installed new levers on my Roadster and am adjusting the freeplay for the clutch cable. I know I need to have 2-3mm play at the lever, but is that prior to any movement of the clutch actuator arm or prior to the point when you can feel the increased resistance of clutch starting...

    Clutch Judder?

    Hey all, My '11 Roadster has been juddering under lower RPMs and moderate load. I initially thought it was the clutch, so I replaced the clutch, and adjusted the clutch as per the manual. It still has the weird judder. Could a faulty detent spring cause this? It has no issue staying in gear...

    Clutch safety switch

    Is it ok to wire the clutch switch open? It would make my wire routing easier if I eliminated it plus it would be one less thing that could go wrong.

    I have a bad feeling about this... Clutch Actuator Arm.

    Hi guys, I was changing the clutch cable on my 14 R3R this evening - I'm doing the Classic Handlebars and Revco Risers mod so I got the longer throttle cables and clutch cable from a R3T. Anyway I took off the clutch actuator arm (I thought it would be easier to change the cable). When I...

    Bypass Clutch Safety Switch?

    This 2 handed start is bullsh*t. Does a method exist to bypass the safety switch so that the ECM is not affected and without any other negative consequences? I did search the forum a few times before making this post, but did not find the info. I have considered moving the switch to a new...
