*Mechanical sympathy:* understanding how something works makes you appreciate it more and become a better person
thats right!
💯
Syg Syg is a good one and 55 is a
Haha after reading this people might go less harsh on their clutch.
There are two types of people, those understand and respect mechanical sympathy, and base retards.
Outstanding, simple, straight-forward explanation of a very complex system. The "hypothetical connect" later split into two pieces, and then combined with other similar pieces really takes all the confusion out of how the system works.
It's just concentrically connecting two parts instead of linearly like in a car.
This is the best explanation on a motocycle clutch for those having a hard time grabbing the concept. Kudos to you
I agree I haven't seen a better way to explain the clutch a lot of people forget to mention that the inner hub is what is connected to the tranny.
I watch this because I have no idea how it works lol and I can say even watching it for the first time I atleast get the jist of it
@@Micscience .i need sir madam.electrical sistam haw to work thanx ..
I see what you did there "grabbing"
Used to be scared of trying to fix my own bike, but this just makes me want to fix it myself
Go for it! Honestly the clutch is one of the easier things to do, even though it might not seem that way to a beginner. Get a proper workshop manual for your bike and it will make it even easier. Keep in mind that there is probably oil there, so if you're gonna work on your clutch drain the oil first. Some bikes have a dry clutch system, but most use oil with the clutch.
For sure, just wondering, is there manuals online?

Its B I G B R A I N Time
Good luck bro😂
😂 next level
😀😀😀 I to felt same but couldn't able to express it but the way you expressed your feeling I like it
🤣😂😂😂
Usually, when I see videos like this, I click to see how bad they screwed it up. I was "disappointed" today.
Nice job. This is very accurate and quite clear.
If you were hoping to be disappointed by something, and you ended up not being disappointed by that something, would you be disappointed?
Philosophy for today.
@@MegaUltra17 you'd be disappointed for not being able to be disappointed by something that you initially expected to be disappointed by
WOW! Just Brilliant-This is the best explanation of how a clutch works ever thank-you!
I would like to beg now. PLEASE keep videos like this coming! visuals and clear explanations combined with a moving model and components makes a topic that is otherwise hard to describe to people, relatively simple. I hope you continue to put out quality content like this. begging completed.
Well done: Have motorbikes for nearly 40 years. Chaaged several sets of clutch plates and various other components. This was one of the explanations I've seen. Well done indeed.
Been riding bikes for 12 years and never fully understood what was happening with the clutch. Thanks a bunch, very well done
Easily the best, clearest and concise description of a wet clutch I've ever seen.
Learning by pictures is better than learning by words. I did not know if my eyes could pick something from your video. Thanks a lot.
This is by far the best channel i've found for technical explanation of mechanical systems. Amazing work
That was beautiful, soft and passionately explained. Such a calming voice....sigh. I feel at peace now and have fully understood how a basic clutch works in a motorcycle.😌
I can listen to her all day long. Such a soothing voice and so well explained
Awesome presentation, after 45 years of my life this mystery is solved for me.
Great video. I teach MSF classes and occasionally get questions about how a clutch works. Verbally explaining it doesn't always work well. Using this video does a MUCH better job. Thanks!
I used to ride bikes before I had a family, had enough of paying too much for a mechanic to service it. Bought a workshop manual and did it myself, learnt so much.
I was like 30-100% understanding of motorcycle clutch packs in 5 minutes. God bless these video tutorial producers
Kudos to this channel for taking a very complex topic in the field of engineering and breaking it down in a way that MANY people can understand. Thank you
fantastic visuals and commentary
This is definitely the best video I've seen on this subject. Finally got an engineering dunce like me to understand it.
Whoever invented this was a genius.
Now I understand that i need to release the clutch smoothly to avoid sudden transfer of power and causing stall. Never too late to be educated.
Thank you so much, ~✨🙏
That voice is so soothing, as a motorcycle mechanic i usually watch these videos to shit on any misinformation but this video is pretty good for a simple but effective explanation, so thumbs up!
at least you’re honest 😂
Wish I would have had all of these good explanations 50 years ago when I started riding. I found out how it works by taking it apart and studying it.
Served me well years later when I worked on giant (500hp+) versions for my company that made custom industrial gearboxes.
It’s crazy to think that you can literally master anything by typing in onto your phone and literally watch a 5 minute video and learn how everything! No clue how people used to live without this technology
Every time i fail to imagine working of clutch but this make it so simple. Genuine explanation
The best explanation of motorcycle clutch!
I can't imagine how this could be better at explaining the principle.
Great job!
That's the most simplified video about the transmission that I've seen yet, keep up the good work
No other video can explain in this simple and excellent manner
Precise, detailed, and patient step by step, great graphics…clearest explanation I have ever seen on this
The best animation of a motorcycle clutch I have ever seen. Really great explanation. I understood the working clearly.
Please like and subscribe if you find the video useful. Your supports will help a lot.
I like and subscribe !
Good.
Great job
This lady's voice narration is too good. And it's extremely soothing and relaxing as well. Keep her for all your other videos too.
@@srinitaaigaura ya kina sexy

this video does a great job of helping me realize that if and when my clutch wears out, it won't be the end of the world and i can just replace the components
have seen many videos about understanding clutch..........this is the finest among all
Not only that I finally understood how the clutch works, I also understood why engine breaking works the way it does.
Awesome video, thanks
Is engine breaking safe or it slowly destroys clutch plate ?
@@muhanishchouhan9501 Engine Braking. There is no additional or abnormal clutch wear or destruction once the crankshaft and input shaft of the gearbox is matched or locked together. The "braking" is the resistance of engine compression not wear of the clutch. If you simply roll off the throttle without downshifting, you are experiencing engine braking; and no additional clutch wear. If you downshift to accentuate the the braking, then there is some additional wear if you don't "rev match" as you engage or operate the clutch. But again, that wear is nil once the shafts are locked together (clutch fully released). Cheers!
@@j.thomas7128 so engine braking puts stress on the combustion chamber right?
@@tuan.hoang_ No, there is no wear on the combustion chambers with engine braking. The braking effect is caused by a vacuum created in them.
@@j.thomas7128Great explanation
I've watched several videos explaining a motorcycle clutch but never understood them. Until now. Excellent video.
Right to the point which everyone loves. No fluff and crap. I know a lot about the clutch yet this even helped me understand it so much better
Now i know how motorcycle clutch works!!
Best motorcycle clutch explanation i've ever seen
As a motocross rider I really appreciate this (and the transmission video). I've worked on my bike a lot but still didin't have a real idea on how these two mechanisms work. Now I do!
Next up would be 2 stroke & 4 stroke engines, so consider this a request. :)
Great video and really helps understand a lot of the counter-intuitive terms and concepts related to clutches. "Engaged" vs "Disengaged" now makes a lot more sense. Thank you!
Awesome…..after 40 years of changing clutches and riding bikes I fully understand….thank you !
I thought there may be hardly any channel can exist other than "Lesics" but that one is found here which closely matches the quality animation & explanation ❤️.
Damn all these years I've tried to understand how bike clutches worked and never did til your vid, so glad I found this channel subbed
I alway wondered how a motorcycle clutch worked, this video explains a lot.
And is the same design and operation of automatic transmissions like mopar 747 torque flight three speed found in cars like a 440 cuda ...GM400 turbo three speed slap stick found in cars like a pontiac gto and the ford C6 three speed auto you can mod using a shift kit from B&M hydro for full manual shifting same as you can for the big Chrysler torqueflite and the GM 400 Turbo these old muscle car transmission used motorcycle style clutch packs to lock up planetary gear for first and second gear as high gear or 3rd gear was a direct lockup of the main shaft through the entire transmission the best place to find one today is Bram old motorhomes that are being scrapped out for the engine and transmission. you get a high stall torque converter lower geared 1st 15 quart pan attached to a big block performance engine...minus a tunnel ram two quads and high lift cam ...just add whats missing and you got a earley NHRA PRO STOCK contender
Genius. People who design complex machines overcoming complex problems are the real geniuses of this world
genius, these guys who invented gearbox and clutch deserves a Nobel
The video explains more than just clutch... well done.
This is my type of ASMR. Great animation and so soothing narration. o_O
I was wrong in my assumption of how a motorcycle clutch works. I"m soooo glad I watched this. Thanks.
I don’t understand how this video can get a single thumbs down! This is the best video I have ever seen for learning the clutch
Clutch video, 5 stars.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
That is such a good explanation, the animation was top notch too. Thank you!
this is the best explanation and illustration of clutch I have ever come across in 29 years!! Same with starter motor...heartful thanks
4 hours later.. The voice is so calm. I fell asleep, thank you 😊.
Now this is what I've been looking for...
Greetings from the international space station!
I found the speaker uncomfortable to listen to at first, but quickly forgot that because of the captivating and well done explanation (a little slow maybe but better than too fast). I'll never forget how a clutch works ever, thanks!
I like this narrator. She has exquisite pronunciation. It's very relaxing, even triggers ASMR.
Excellent detail on the clutch pack, and function of plates.The only confusion I get is from discussing clutch operation with other riders/mechanics. Most people (I have found) say, "clutch in" when they describe pulling in the clutch lever, towards them. But you see in the animation that the clutch plates go 'out', away from the engine/rider. Some say it/describe it the reverse. I usually try to concentrate on the plates and describe them as 'released', or as 'engaged'. It still leads to confusion because of people's habits. In and Out are relative terms.
Yeah, well, clutch in is the correct terminology as it refers to the lever itself, and not with the clutch pads, which many people have no idea how they function, so it would be too confusing to refer to engaging the clutch as pulling it out. Even though it's scientifically correct. But yes. Engaging the clutch is also applicable. I guess it's probably the better term, as it's really engaging the clutch to perform it's primary function.
English is fucking stupid and never should have been combined with engineering.
Very good work!😉👍
Just brilliant !
One of the most UNDERSTANDABLE descriptions of how a thing works that I've ever seen and HEARD.
Thank you.
I knew what a clutch looked like but never realized how it worked really. The hypothetical ring description was the ticket for me.
I like that you're posting videos like this! Can you do a video on how ignition timing works? I know it's just for older bikes but it would be super useful. If not just an alternator / stator would be awesome! Thank you guys for making these videos, they're great!
Not just for older bikes. New bikes still have an ignition system but they are solid state.
You must be referring to the points and condenser ignition system, which was used on older engines before electronic ignition came along.
All gasoline engines need to have their ignition timing set precisely, otherwise they won't run properly or at all.
your great at this!,a video on dray clutch would be great in near future. ;)
Compliments to the writer, animator and narrator. That was extremely well done! Thanks.
This explaination was extremely well done, smooth and easy to understand animations aswell as cutting all the information into bite-size pieces. Thanks!
There are (now) 14 peoples still can't understand such a great explanation. LOL!
90 morons now! 😆
Goddamn it! What a stupendous explanation. More like this, how RPM gauges work, how stator coil charges the battery. More please. More power to you guys!
Outstanding narration. Supremely above 99% of every other video out here.
This is the best explanation of such a confusing mechanism!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

JK All are amazing channels and I'm glad to see another quality channel! Cheers. :)
1930s videos : Hmph...Amateurs! ua-cam.com/video/JOLtS4VUcvQ/v-deo.html
That said Teckno Mechanics is the best I've seen yet in today's channels. That CG is impeccable. And this narrator lady has the best accent.
Excellent instruction. Great use of 3D graphics and spot on pedagogy. I wish public schools were 10% as good as this.
One of the clearest explanations I have ever seen.
By far one of the best explanations of a motorcycle clutch! Amazing job. It takes skill to understand the workings of something. It takes a greater skill to understand and make others understand.
Very clear & informative. Wish I'd seen this years ago!
I’ve been riding motorcyle for years and I just comprehend how the clutch works by now. Thank you for the video.
Accurate and easily understood. Description, demonstration and animations are the best tutorials published. Keep up the good productions.
I have always had trouble understanding the inner workings of the clutch and gears but this video was the perfect remedy. Excellent job!
Best video on UA-cam to explain CLUCTH
whoever the genius is that put this together should be commended. Amazing explanation !!!
Well I couldn't rode a motorcycle as I couldn't understand the function of the clutch and why we need it in the first place after watching this video and with a bit of practice I am now able to ride the bike flawlessly
I love learning new things. Thank you for posting this and thanks to those folks coming here to learn.
Another great video. Always good to explain the chosen design by explaining why another approach ( your hypertheretical connector) can't be used. Excellent
this is by far the best video ive seen explaining clutches well done, 👏
Gawd! So simple and elegant. I feel foolish for not making this connection myself. The number of engines I have built in the past 🤦🏻♂️
Have this playing on your bedside table for an excellent lullaby
Well explained... It's always stuck in my head how the hell this works whenever i see clutch plates lying in garages. Kudos....
OMG i watched TONS of videos HOW CLUCTH WORKS butt didn't understand BUT now i know how it works
Solid animation with clear & calm voice explanation. really goes into the brain's library.
i love this channel so much, you dont even unerstand
Incredible video, I finally understand how a clutch works, and not just what it does! Excellent animation and explanation, thank you!
Very perfectly demonstrate. Today after so many of years i actually understand how actually clutch works. Your video prove that the the perfect teacher can even make poor student like master
Searched this because today was my first drive for a2 motorcycle category and i really wondered why does it stall so easily unlike a car, and why you cant just let the clutch progressively like in a car you rather need to hold it half released in the same place for 1 2 seconds before letting it fully, so good explanation love you❤
I've replaced clutches on cars when I was younger, back when cars could be serviced by mere mortals, with hand tools. But I always wondered about bike clutches, specifically the actuator arm. This is a GREAT vid, with VERY well-realized animation and calm, clear narration. Thank you for sharing. I saw the thumb for the animation of how a bike transmission works. Guess wha tI'm going to watch next? Thanks again!
Very detailed animation of engine clutch and gear box.
Animation and description of the system is awesome.
I will use this to teach new riders! Thank you so much. I find understanding how a motorcycle works to be very useful in learning how to ride
That's the best explanation on clutch operation I've ever seen.
