This video was very helpful for me. Especially when putting the rebuilt clutch back on the crank shaft. I'm glad you took time to explain that you have to fiddle with the large gear to get the clutch to go all the way on. When the clutch is tightened correctly the nut should be flush with the end of the crank shaft (with the nut retainer and washer in place). Thanks!
The person before who positioned the shift arm incorrectly also left out the washer between the clutch basket nut and the tabbed lock washer. That washer is marked "out side" that that writing faces the nut side
Thanks for showing the details. I work on these engines for almost 48 years, but I never opened the clutch. I wonder if the clutch performance can be improved by adding more weight to the parts that react to higher RPM. Maybe next time you can go deeper into the clutch. Once again: Thank you .. good job.
I've changed my clutch plates but the clutch is still slipping Try adjusting the stud still the same What is the problem ? Should I just changed the whole thing ?
Those old plates look like they have some high spots on them ( signs of warping) Have you ever checked them for flatness? If they are warped bad enough it can possibly give you some weird feeling in clutch engagement.
Hey man got a quick question for you. I bought a z50r few days ago that wouldnt shift. Found out the little arm on the top left side of the clutch side broke off. I changed it and now it goes trough all the gears fine when the engine is not running. With the engine running, first goes in with a massive kick like theres no clutch at all and sencond wont engage until im at a certain speed and it also comes with a kick.. i tried adjusting the clutch but i wouldnt say it changed much... im i right to beleive its clutch related if the gears shift fine with engine off? Im kind of lost... i tried putting lite pressure on the shifting pedal to see if it would feel like im slipping the clutch because thats what my other old semi auto honda quad does but it doesnt
could be time for clutch rebuild. maybe start with that see if you get improvement as it is easily accessed. If not, probably shift forks, bent or worn etc and time to split case to look around.
@@VintageHondaMinis yeah i think if it was gear related it wouldnt shift as well with the engine not running tho. But i watched your video carefully and dont remember seeing the little cap that goes over the spring on the actuator. Time to investigate. Thanks a lot man veeeerry helpfull videos
I swear on my life if you haven’t upload this video I would be stuck like a lost dog I watch this over 10times back to back thanks for the video bro

Interesting and amazing how the basic design hasn't changed much from the 70's. 2022 CRF50F looks identical
Why fix what isn’t broken, right?
Almost done 1962 super cub 50 this adjustment may help me. Very good explanation

Great video, clear speech and well explained. Also nice and easy to watch.
Very easy to follow! Thanks
Great Video! Now I'll go do the clutch in my 74 Z50....thanks
What a great Job! Outstanding videos! Thank you.
Great video, thank you for sharing !!
Thank You, I followed this step by step for my C70 and it helped so much. Except... you said 3 oclock but installed something closer to 1:30?
Great video Josh
Very detailed, thanks
Great job with your vids. Thank You
Excellent video, thanks!
Thanks for the vid, I've got a 72 hardtail an a 79 j to do, amazing little engines that get flogged to death for decades an still go 🦘
Very informative thanks.
Hey!! Great vid.
Would the clutch arm being in the wrong position cause hard shifting??
Thx
Yes
Can you do a video on how to adjust a manual clutch for a honda 50/70? Very little info on those.
I've changed my clutch plates but the clutch is still slipping
Try adjusting the stud still the same
What is the problem ? Should I just changed the whole thing ?
What did you figure out?
@@purplepaper7804 I've changed the whole thing but it's still the same
Now the bike is at my hometown collecting dust
Holy crap my trails have never had that much stuff packed in the centrifuge.
Now i know !:) much appreciated 👍uk

Yes you can check for flatness on granite machine block and feeler guages
@@VintageHondaMinisdo you have a part number so I can get the correct clutch tool.
Ordered wrong one flat back I call it. Mine has gear sticking out the back. Hope I can take friction plates out of flat back and use in mine.
Gracias maestro good video
I like the clutch replacement how can you adjust it
Here is the adjustment video - ua-cam.com/video/e3pryZ3bglA/v-deo.html
You must be early to everything if you think that is 3 o'clock.

The clutch still can be stuck the bike been sitting outside for god knows how long before i picked it up
When you put clutch arm in that position should that b neutral ??
@@markhoughton4327 yes sir
@@VintageHondaMinis thanks, love this video... Have refered to it 4 times already
Hi do you have info on where to get the clutch socket? Thank you love your videos! 71 50 mini trail!
Hi -www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OO2Q86/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
That link more good to a flywheel puller???? That's not the right socket right?
have you any videos on how to replace the the kick starter on a honda 250 a mini bike
you just undo the bolt then take it off and put the new one on

Considered a oil filteration system
