    Thank you very much. I have watched 5 or 6 videos on clutch adjustment and since I'm still watching more videos it's obvious non of them helped me. Until now. You fully explained how to adjust the clutch. It worked. Thank you. Every one else left out key information. I feel like they did it on purpose so I could not fix it myself and would give up and take it to a shop and pay to have it adjusted. Very dishonest as far as I'm concerned.
    So thanks again for explaining "each & every" step to correctly adjust the clutch.

    Thanks. My 66cc wouldn’t start until I ensured that the clutch pads were loosely fitted in the plate and I’d increased the tension on the main clutch spring. Then it started up easily.

    I'm glad I found your video again. My clutch will not adjust. When I loosen the chain the clutch assembly wobbles. It seems to be more extreme than the normal play I have seen in these motors. The drive gear on the other is tight but the assembly is loose. What do I do next?

    Should probably add that sometimes one of the engine block bolts behind the clutch plate itself can come loose and lock everything up, even with the clutch engaged. The bolt came loose and pushed out to lock the plate.

    Assuming your just needing to adjust the clutch and can still roll it etc. In stead of holding the clutch arm, just disengage the clutch by pushing your pin in or if you have the clutch with the grooves on the lever hold it on the last position. I have the red and black clutch lever with the grooves so I just pull it in and lock it in one of the grooves then I can undo the flower nut. If you are having a problem with the clutch lever and being able to hold it just pull it with a zip tie until you're finished

    @tommysavia523 3 роки тому

    Easiest way I've found is to adjust your cable to take out the slack depress the clutch handle to the lock if the clutch won't disengage spin the star nut out till it's free and then back in 1 or 2 notches should be set if it won't engage spin the star nut in until it touches the plate and then 1 or 2 notches and it's set in both cases you'll need to adjust the cable to remove any slack

    Not sure if you'll see this comment with how old this video is but worth a shot. A 'nails on a chalk board' type sound is coming from what i believe is the clutch area, what would cause this sound? Improper lubrication? Broken or severly worn parts/components?

      @jamiebouchard9862 5 років тому +1

      Motored Life everything rolls smoothly, I've even had the motor running last night. But when I release the clutch it slips for a second and then starts to turn over. I thought maybe during assembly someone handled the internal clutch components with oily hands or maybe the flower nut is too tight? Any help is much appreciated!!

    e bikes batteries are expensive and still unproven technology in my opinion. Thank you now I know how to tune my clutch

    Best way to tell if it’s ok is to disengage clutch and lift up back wheel… ideally rear wheel won’t spin or if it barely spins that’s fine too. If it’s wheel spins that means you need to readjust.

  • @thomasshannon4980
    @thomasshannon4980 2 роки тому

    Just watching this now. I loosened my clutch plate abit awhile ago. And before that my bike used to crank up with about 1-2 released of the clutch. Now I find that it’s a matter of luck for the engine to crank up. Sometimes I’m peddling for 10 miniutes releasing the clutch and it won’t crank. But when it cranks the engine is smooth af. Very fast and nice to ride. Do I need to tighten my clutch plate ? Because my clutch cable is good

    I did exactly what you showed and my clutch still slips no matter what. When you pull in the clutch handle my star nut keeps going after 3 turns. And the more you tighten the star nut it pulls the clutch handle in. And it still slips no matter how tight I go. Why is my clutch arm pulling in when I tighten my star nut on the clutch plate? Why would it still slip?

    like me you have probably tried lots of different methods and I even made a video on my channel talking about how people tell them to put all this grease even bike berry I called them out and corrected them just recently cuz their video shows them putting way way way too much grease and it will make your clutch slip it's not a matter of if it will so what you did is Keen and perfect
    also honestly keeping a greased in there is great but it is highly overrated one summer I rode 3500 miles on a motor that was never touched from the factory and then I finally took it apart and greased it I did notice a little bit of difference but it wasn't a huge difference

    When I first got my engine I found it impossible to get the clutch perfect. It appeared to be working fine but I noticed when I lifted the rear wheel with the clutch in, it would rotate. I realised the clutch pads were not being completely even. After a week or so it became perfect. The clutch arm on mine had a screw to hold the cable in place which was useless. I stripped an electrical plug and used the brass bit that holds the fuse(on a UK plug) to hold the cable. It looks and works perfectly.

      The star nut on my 48cc engine (kit) is on SO tight I can't even get it off. Sucks b/c I really wanted to put my high temperature high performance clutch pads on. I held the clutch handle in (and locked it), pulled the clutch arm, even saw a noticeable gap between the star nut and the clutch plate (even pushing the clutch plate in against the spring), and I even tried gently "tapping" it loose with a flat head screwdriver and a hammer to try and get it spinning but it wouldn't even budge. (And yes, I removed the little locking screw!) Now I'm concerned that, if the threads got stripped when they put it on too tight in the factory, then I won't be able to get it back on if I DO manage to get it off. Ah well, it is what it is. This is my FIRST DAY getting my bike going.....spent HOURS the last 3 nights straight putting it together from the kit (I've NEVER done something "mechanical" on this scale by ANY means lol), so I'm just happy to be able to ride it! But I DO want the high performance clutch pads on, too...

      @Chino196 4 роки тому

      I’m Assuming since the clutch heats up and expands its too tight of an adjustment. So i’d back off the adjustment slightly to compensate with the temperature changes.
      You should be able to find a sweet spot. I also use different color markers to mark the adjustments i’ve made.

    Hey man great channel i watch all your vids , i have another ques how much play should the needle bearing between the conecting rod and the piston have ? This is the second engine i had the same thing happen it looks like the wrist pin is pushing on either side of the clips and pushes them out into the engine , im at a loss these engines should last longer than 150 mile! Btw i bought one from gasbike a gt7 80cc and one from kingsmotors a yd100 i rebuilt the yd100 and its running but i hear a rattling noise which i think is the conecting rod moving around . if the gave me the wrong bearing they should replace the whole thing .

  • @brandonkellogg9590

    The way I set my clutch is I tighten it until the wheel won't turn when the lever is engaged and locked. Then I loosen it one position at a time until the wheel moves freely when the lever is locked. Any looser than that and the bike has starting problems. Any tighter than that and it won't stay in neutral when idling

    So if I lose torque on my bike then does that mean there is something wrong with the clutch I hit the throttle when I'm riding and it's lost lots of torque for some reason?

    Anyone know why my clutch arm won’t move to the full position and my tire is locked and the clutch wont disengage

    Hello your probably not on this account anymore but I guess it’s worth a shot me asking. My clutch arm (where the clutch cable runs through and you have to screw it in with the little screw) is bent inwards and because I need my clutch cable so tight it’s rubbing on my carb and sticking I was just wondering if you had a video where it shows how to adjust the clutch arm

      The arm should readjust when you disconnect both sides like in the video. If you run into more issues you can email me at MotoredLife@gmail.com :)
