Hi Peter, thank you for your positive comments hopefully the video will help if you ever work on a XJR. Done around 8k since the work on the bike with no issues with the clutch, must have done something good 😁 Safe miles buddy
Thank you so much for the very helpful video. I did it your way and it went smoothly. Just had to change the clutch spring. Thanks again & regards from Amsterdam.
Everything went well, I was on the verge of going to the local mechanic as the Haynes manual made it look daunting. Saw your video just in time and thanks to you, saved a few quid!
I've just been looking at Fowlers to price up a mates XJR1300 for all the frictions and steels and spring as his is slipping... Mega Money¬! Anyway I was thinking Hmmmmmm what about the diaphragm spring? Maybe it's just that... Just checked your video, wicked.. Pity you didn't measure the new spring to let us know what the height was? Anyway nice one your video was really good.
Dumb question alert. I have clutch slip too which I'm about to sort out, but when you took yours apart I was expecting to see 6 small actual springs somewhere as seen on the upgrade kit available online. I'm confused now. Does that convex/concave plate with the 'fingers' take the place of springs? I've read that people double up on the springs as a cheap ugrade......do they mean putting two of those finger plates on? I also had a slave seal leak which I fixed using you other video as reference so cheers for that 👍
I think I was expecting more of a traditional bike clutch set up as well. I did price the conversion to a six spring set up but at the time it was three times more expensive than the aftermarket spring I fitted, think it was EBC. Also the standard set up works fine when not worn. It did say the clutch lever would be heavier to pull, in practice I did not notice any real difference. Done around 8k miles since the video with no problems 😁
Thankyou mate I really got alot out of this run through 🤞👍

@@paulbell9025 cheers mate. I own an XJR12OOR and am having exactly the same issue so I'm thinking pressure plate. This video is a great help for me 😁
