Here’s a Big Tip! Good vid for sure, but he should have showed it in his video.The Top Plate (Steel) in the clutch pack is actually smaller, and the “teeth” on the edge do not reach or go into the clutch basket. It goes on the backside of the basket cover that holds the springs. I had never seen this before, and I’ve done a lot of clutches. If you don’t line it up with the back of the spring holder cover, the cover will not seat properly. The clutch will stay engage. Make sure you put that plate in place, and that it stays there when seating the cover….
Thanks for making this video I just got my Kawasaki z400 last week it was used and it has this problem the dealership would be 500 dollars to fix it and now I found a better way
Nice video man. I need the same done on my z400. It’s unfortunate that Kawasaki hasn’t done a recall on this. It’s a shame they made such a good bike for its class, but can’t be ridden to it’s full potential from the factory.
Thank you, I'm trying with what I got. No fancy video editor. 😆 I fully agree with you, Word is they just reused the 300 springs. Luckily, It's an easy, quick and cheap fix.
Best of luck to you man.
Oi, amigo vc ainda esta com a moto, como ficou a moto após 02 anos de uso, teve algum problema na embreagem apos este período?
nice z400 maintenance content
Got more coming this week 🙌 Thank youu
Have a cage vid, ecu removal, Velocity stacks, radiator guard, was gonna do a header vid bit I lost half the footage.
@@MrCcjcool great! please also highlight the fuel hose removal at the tank, the red clip thing... they say it's sensitive and prone to damage... Thanks!
Nice vid thanks! What was your mileage. I am at 18k Kms. With that much mileage is better to replace more than just springs, bearing and bar you think?
I replaced it at 7 miles
Thank you very much for the info ! A have a question: kawasaki also changed the springs in 2020 model ? My doubt is, won't the slip problem be fixed just by changing the two (ROD and Bearing ball) modified parts ?
Same springs. They're are actually also the same ones from the ninja 300. The springs will help reduce slip, the pull rod and bearing actually allows more clutch wear because before you only got 60ish percent worn down before you had to replace. I suggest Barnnett Clutch Springs. If you're gonna replace the rod and bearing, Mind aswell put new springs in. You're already taking them out. Aldo, norton motorsport makes a whole kit for it. I'll add link.

I checked your links for the parts, they are OEM parts.
Did Kawasaki make a revision to the original first version of those parts? I'm wondering how the new parts are OEM but in the video you show how the new parts are smaller or thinner.
They did.
@@MrCcjcool thanks
@@c0uchsl0uch they revised those two parts in 2020. But they still need stronger springs
@@MrCcjcool I went to check my clutch. There is play in the lever but the adjuster nut is super tight. Is there a tool I'm supposed to use or just go down by the clutch and try to tighten that end ? Thanks
@@c0uchsl0uch there should be a little play in the lever
sorry i meant post it on here by the way awesome video as well too.
Does Z650 or Ninja 650 has same update, ordered clutch springs from Barnett, 4K miles
I don't know much about the 650
any er6n clutch group is fine? did you have to make changes or mount such and which? different thicknesses must be entered?
Hello I am from Argentina. what is the torque of the screws? Thank you
It's 89 in/lbs for the 3 basket/Clutch disk bolts
I changed the clutch plates and before I put the oil in for some reason my clutch lever is super loose and it doesn’t retract. I tried adjusting the clutch line and nothing .
I had the same problem. And ended up being the inner clutch basket didn't seat properly. So I took the four disc closes to you and put it on the inner peice of the clutch basket before putting it back on to ensure it seats properly. Should sit flush with no gap.. Also make sure the pull rod goes in before the basket and that the basket bearing is in its spot.
Do you ride your bike hard on the street? Do you rev to redline often etc? I've owned a 2019 Z400 since new, now have 4k miles, zero clutch slip issues, not once. Just curious how common this slip issue is when riding the bike on the street under normal riding conditions?
It's year dependent I'm pretty sure. But most people experience the slip. Sadly they put the ninja 300 clutch in the 400 and it can't handle the extra power. Never hit redline yet. Luckily they help the problem partially on the 2020 + models
@@MrCcjcool lol never hit redline? 🤣 how many miles you've got?
@@seanandrew2823 sold it at 3500 and never hit redline.
@@MrCcjcool 🤯🤯 lol i couldn't imagine.... how did you hold back i cant go 2 miles without bouncing it on the limiter especially in 2nd gear. Its sooo fun when you wind out first and 2nd. If you preload the shifter, the limiter shifts for you
@@seanandrew2823 makes sense, just like clutchless shifting.
Will be doing the same to my 2018 n400. Thanks for sharing and cool music choice 👍
No problem, good luck. Should work, the z and n are pretty same bike minus plastics and front suspension. Thank youu, very limited with UA-cam audio library, but I like what I chose.
Hey Mr.Ccjcool can you please put up on here the torque Specs for the clutch plate and outer plate on the housing on for the kawasaki Z400 so i can the same too my i would really appreciate it thanks.
It's 89 in/lbs for the 3 basket/Clutch disk bolts
Is there no gasket on the crankcase cover?
Nope. But I'm pretty sure you can buy one. But there was not.
Lay the bike down on the left side and you can probably not have to drain the oil. I guess it depends if there's a breather on the left side that might leak oil if the bike is on its side.
Lol basically what I did
So we're can I pick these parts up at? For my Kawasaki Z400 model 2019 can put the part number up on here so can see what part number I need to get thanks 😎👍🤙
Parts are in the description. Bike rode better. Have yet to have the clutch slip.
So I just changed my clutch plates and spring and when I got done putting it back together I realized I have no tension l (like 0) in my clutch handle. I’ve tried adjusting the upper and lower adjustment to max and I still have no tension. Any idea what could be the problem
I had the same problem. And ended up being the inner clutch basket didn't seat properly. So I took the four disc closes to you and put it on the inner peice of the clutch basket before putting it back on to ensure it seats properly. Should sit flush with no gap.. Also make sure the pull rod goes in before the basket and that the basket bearing is in its spot
Try this and lmk if it helps. Wish there was a way I could message you
Hey I just tried that and it works like a charm now! TYSM! Are you from Pittsburgh?
@@michaelmcclintock2617 Massachusetts. Glad to here it worked. I had the same problem. Wanted to pit the solution in the video. Camera didn't record.
You should make a video , I’m having the same problem can’t figure it out for the life of me , I’m gonna try this tomorrow tho and see
So how does it ride now? These it ride better now?
Definitely rides better. Hasn't slipped since.
Bro, my Z400 was showing the same problem. Beyond the 3rd gear, if I opened up all the throttle the clutch would slip. I thought it was the clutch cable that wasn't going back all the way. I cleaned and lubed it, adjusted the clutch cable as the manual recommends and the problem disappeared.
Yeah its bc kawasaki used all the 300 parts in the clutch on the 400. Can't handle the power
💙💙💙
No gasket?
Nope, doesn't come with one stock.
@@MrCcjcool sweet!
Cool vid! Im about to head to Harbor Freight and grab one of those in/lb torque wrenches! Thanks!
Honestly worth the 20 bucks.
My clutch exploded today got it towed at 11:50 at night
