Dear Sir, I truly appreciate your energy and effort to post this video! It takes a MASTER TEACHER to explain complex things so well that even a young child can comprehend and visualize with clarity and and understanding. Thank you for taking the time and energy to post such a comprehensive and thorough explanation of a motorcycle's clutch. Though my experience is in jet engines and muscle cars, I feel so ever greatly improved and educated with another mechanical system. Thank you again and WELL DONE!

+31kroko When the clutch plates wear out the clutch cover sits closer to the left side of the engine and so does the pushing shaft. That causes the extra slack on the clutch cable. (In the replies Chris correctly pointed out that clutch cable slack decreases as the clutch plates wear out.)

Actually as the plates wear,the outer plate moves further in.The pushrod clearance DECREASES consequently the clutch cable slack decreases.Notwithstanding the fact that over time the cable wears/stretches and increases the slack in the cable

Listen to Chris, he knows what he's talking about. When you see guys in supercross/motocross adjust their clutch free play during a moto, most of the time they're doing that because they've ground off half the diameters of the plates because they abuse the clutch so much (they purposely slip the clutch coming out of corners, etc. for more power - when they do this they force the plates to grind against each other). This causes the clutch pack to decrease in diameter, which forces the pushrod (the outer plate is on the end of the pushrod on the clutch side) more towards the other side of the engine and pushes the clutch lever outwards, away from the handlebars. The clutch lever itself won't disengage the clutch plates in the same place that they're used to, so it throws them off a bit when trying to go fast (they're used to having a bit of slack in the cable, so when there isn't any it feels different). The main problem is that when they wear down a clutch pack, the clutch lever doesn't have much room to move outward before it runs out of adjustment and stops (the pushrod/outer plate only can move a little bit towards the other side of the engine until they stop too). The clutch pack gets thinner, the end of the pushrod & outer plate isn't close enough to clamp down on it with enough force, and the plates start to slip against each other. When that happens, you get less power to the rear wheel, and that's very bad. A slipping clutch wears even faster, so that compounds the situation. If you have a ton of slack in the cable you won't be able to fully disengage the clutch. You'll only be able to push the plate away from the clutch pack a tiny bit. This can happen like when Chris said above if you have a new cable and it stretches out. Assuming you have the correct clutch cable and its installed correctly (and adjusted to where it should be on the bars), there are adjustments you can make to the end of the nut on the pushrod to take out the slack. Or you could have a worn pushrod assembly, the ball could be all battered and flattened, etc.

It's crazy how similar that engine is to a Yamaha Blaster engine (they came out in 1988 and kept the same engine design until 2006 when Yamaha stopped selling them - they were just 200cc air cooled units). So much of the bottom end looks almost exactly the same (minus the water pump). It's interesting to see when manufacturers take/borrow from existing designs. 2-strokes are so simple, I love them!

This shows why you should avoid sitting in first gear with the clutch pedal depressed (in a car) or with the clutch cable pulled (on a bike) because you impose undue/unnecessary wear on the clutch release bearing (5:36). Put the gearbox into neutral until the lights go green. Be reasonably sensitive about your use of your clutch and it should last the life of the engine.

Hi, very good explanation, could you explain why the cable becomes loose and needs adjustment as the plates wear? As the plates wear and become thinner over time the pressure plate goes closer to the engine so the pushing shaft should have less distance to move. I mean the cable should be tighter over time instead of more loose. Do I miss something?

Brilliant video thanks all ot mate !!!! Quick question I understand the basics of how a clutch and gear box work together. What i would like to know is iff poping the clutch to do a wheelie is also bad for the gear box? So I mean your riding in 1st gear your up to 15 mph u bring clutch in rev it allot then pop it out. from my understanding won't this just wreck the clutch eventually as it's already in gear? Or does this put ware on the gears inside due to the shock load ? Iff you could please get back to I would love to learn exactly what this does. I'm not doing wheelies all the time but when I did i thought about learning exactly what damages it causes. From what I think won't this just put ware on the clutch iff the box is already in gear? As I could live with wareing out a clutch as they are replaceable what I would hate thoe is to ware inside the gear box
