    Bro you helped me so much. I’ve been trying to figure out for weeks why my clutch wouldn’t engage and I never even thought of check in the rod

    Dude you should have took that basket out to file them down. You'll fill the bottom of the motor with aluminum shavings. Glad you changed the oil after you did that. I Recommend Amsoil dirt 10w40 and repack the silencer lol. Those 125s are loud as hell when that packing wears out

    After googling and youtube this was the only thing I can find that explained my issue clearly, bike wouldn't down shift for me on occasion and yesterday it almost sent me into the street when i started in 1st. Clutch was pulled in ALL the way. Havent took the bike apart yet but im positive this is the issue. Won't even roll in 1st w/ clutch atm. Gonna order some new parts, bikes at 35k, hopefully i can get another 35k.

    Ur having all the same exact problems as my atv. I’ve replaced the stator and the bolts were stripped, so I had to order specialty replacement bolt set, and my clutch basket is grooved and the rod isn’t pushing the basket. I’ve been through the carb so many times and it finally works perfect, and then the clutch messed up. I figured it was this issue so that’s why I was looking. Good video for reassuring my thoughts

    You probably shouldn’t be grinding anything inside the motor that puts metal shavings into your engine normally you take the basket out and do this

      @RidingWiithJacob  4 роки тому +6

      johnsn10 I’ve also had handful of bikes and multiple CR 125s every single bike rolled with the clutch in while in gear. But yes I’ve heard on occasion race bikes don’t like to roll with clutch in. This bike on the other hand definitely had a problem with the clutch.

    When I let the clutch out (dirt bike) there is a now a moment
    (often) where its not engaged, then after a second it will
    seem to lock up and engage finally. The clutch has many
    hours, but I'm asking if this very specific action is pretty
    common when the clutch is going out, or would it
    likely be something else?

    • @RidingWiithJacob
      @RidingWiithJacob  3 роки тому

      1st sounds dumb but make sure your chain is on properly, 2nd what’s the front sprocket looking like? Is it all chewed up? That would cause it to just spin when the bike is in gear. I would also take clutch cover off and make sure is engaging when you pull the lever in. If that checks out it’s a deeper problem like clutch plates shot or a transmission problem.
