clutch

I'm in the process of changing the clutch, and was looking for the right place to soak the clutch discs in. So, heres what I found. Everyone has seen the tortilla warmers at walmart? They are just a couple of bucks and plastic. They are also the perfect size for clutch discs, and that way you...

Hey guys. I have a question regarding the clutch switch on my 2005. I'm trying to set up a circuit where pulling the clutch switch in will go to ground and complete the circuit which will power up a module I've installed on the bike. To clarify, I ONLY want the module to power up when I...

Ive looked around and cant find anything definite. How long do you soak the fiber discs before installing. Ive heard anything from 30-45 mins, to overnight.

This is a strange one, and I think I have the answer, but wanted to ask here- Got my vmax last year, 85 with 1,950 miles on her. Slave cyl for the clutch was leaking, well, that's to be expected, had the shop rebuild the slave. This year, the master cyl was leaking, same deal, shop rebuilt...

Anyone have an issue with clutch fluid becoming murky? Performed a clutch bleed yesterday and noticed even before opening the lid on the master that the fluid in the window was dark. Performed the bleed, using both Mityvac and traditional methods, the fluid has some sort of suspended darkness in...

Hi, everybody! My 86 has 70k on it. About 10k ago, I installed a new clutch for no particular reason other than I didn't know if it had ever been done. I haven't had a problem at all. The bike has sat since last September. A month ago, I started it up and let it get warm. I went to put it...

Has anyone used one of these Heavy Duty One Way Starter Clutches (with 6 rollers) ? http://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_odkw=&_ssn=enginesourcing&_armrs=1&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2046732.m570.l1313.TR10.TRC0.A0.H0.Xvmax.TRS0&_nkw=vmax&_sacat=0 I just ordered one for $69.99 and I'm hoping...

Am I missing something? The manual and picture show the slave coming right out of the cover. My slave doesn't agree. I have the VooDoo exhaust and the pipes are preventing it from dropping out of the bottom. Which way does it come out?

This morning I did the DD with the larger retainer and change the oil with Amsoil 20W-50 Synthetic (I was using Yamalube) Purolator PSL14610 Synthetic Spin-On Oil Filter. I noticed there was no gasket when removed the clutch cover (glad I ordered one!). I also replaced the final gear oil for...

I have been bleeding and adjusting clutch lever, but at mornings pressure is almost gone. After a while it starts to build pressure anyway and clutch is working normally and lever is also firm and normal. (When engine is warm??) We still have quite cold nights here..is it relevant to the issue...

Just did the double D clutch upgrade. I left the half clutch in the back so I'd have some slipping not to break any parts. But it won't go into Nuetral when the bike is running. When the bike is off it goes into N without an issue. Had it apart to check 3 times now and I can't figure it out for...

It seems the one thing left that is blocking me mounting the windshield I want is clutch and brake levers. The stock ones contact the windshield. I have seen several different clutch and brake levers offered, but I am not certain which ones out there will fit what I need. (also need them to...

Hi, Has anyone had an issue w/ the cover as in the Phillips head is rounded or the allen key screw is rounded? Anyone ever drill it out then tap a new thread in the hole? Thanks from Polk City

I need to know the stock length for the clutch line. I want to upgrade my brake and clutch lines, and I can easily measure the brake lines, but the clutch line is routed behind a ton of stuff. Gonna have the shop I go to make up the lines, because the stock straight banjo bolts are a pain when...

With the double d clutch and carbs cleaned I took it for a quick ride yesterday. With that super hard Exceddra tire on it, it spins easily from a 5 mph roll. I was able to pull the front end up high in 1st gear, but not in 2nd gear. I never clutch up my bikes, just pure power. But end result...

Greetings! I don't know if I have an actual problem or not, so I'm reaching out for some assistance, perhaps during Thunder 2015. If I rest my hand on the clutch lever in the lower gears, that is about all of the pressure needed to engage it and make it slip while accelerating. I don't know...

Hopefully someone can help me here. I have a strange noise at engine idle that sounds like a squeal near the bottom of motor. It sounds like squeak or squeal like sound and when i engage the clutch it goes away. If i rev the motor it doesnt increase with rpms. Has me baffled. Any help diagnosing...

I was trying to bleed my clutch and I was doing it for like an hour, and got no lever at all, fluid was coming out but not a lot like no pressure really. I was wondering if I should try to clean it or just rebuild it

I needed to loosen a bolt on the clutch mater cylinder so I could remove the front fork spring. After tightening in back up I barely have a clutch. The bolt has a rubber boot over it and is tightened into the master cylinder. Did I get air in the system?

I found this on ebay, New starter clutch looks good to me. I have not order 1 though but I may do it later on. I thought if some in vmaxforum looking to replace there's. This 1 maybe a better alternative Price 109.99...
