- Replacing clutch plates on my 2016 Aprilia rsv4 rf Le 117/200. This is my second time replacing the clutch plates. The first time I used a Barnett clutch pack and it didn’t last long using launch control on a really hot day and not letting the bike cool in between. Now I’m replacing the plates again with a EBC clutch pack. Hopefully they last a little longer than 4,000 miles and 7 launches. Lol.
I think the outer basket ring normally has little play in it. Comment below if I’m way wrong!?
Just a helpful tip for next time, you can use some small zip ties to hold the new gasket on the cover side, then as you install and get a few bolts in just cut them free.
I always used silicone for gaskets
Even easier, put few bolts into the cover and place the gasket on the cover, it also makes it easier to guide the cover into the correct position with these 2-3 bolts
You can also use a bit of grease
I've never had to replace a clutch on a bike before. Good video
You forgot the part where they tell you to soak your clutch plates in oil before you install. I think it’s like 30-60 mins… or something like that.
Ya. That should be in the instructions for the new clutch. U can see mine soaking in the video but your right, I should have said it.
Great work man..
Hi Jeff,
Can you re-explain how did you remove the clutch cover, Iam having a hard time taking it out.
It’s pretty hard the first time. I had to use a rubber mallet to get it freed up. Then it comes off easy. Tap it all around then pull on it.
@@jeffo_511 hello Jeff,
Thanks for the help. I was able to remove the cover. I am not sure if you have/ had experience this: I was on the track going 140 on a straight way when my gear stick on 4rd gear. I did some research and I found that a lot of people have to rebuild their gearbox.
Have you done it before,? And do you know a place that sells separate gear discs
@@tarikben1726 never heard of that happening. The know it has a cassette gear box and super easy to change. Not sure where to get the gear from but I’m sure the entire gear box is on eBay used. Maybe with the cover off pull that cassette out and see if anything is broken
@@jeffo_511 will do . Where are you located, or what track do you go to? If you don’t mind me asking.
I am near Philadelphia area and I track with Evolve GT at NJMP
@@tarikben1726 I coach with Stt and race wera and just got approved for my MotoAmerica license. So I’m all over. Never been to njmp yet though. But Pitt race and barber and roebling and bunch of others. I’m in Michigan.
I have a question. So my 2014 rsv4 factory will happen that when the engine temperature is high and I drive it in the center of city, the engine is lack power in the first gear. When I turn the throttle, there is a little bit of power push me forward, it’s so weak! And the rpm and the speed is also very very low, which is hard to increase, but after a moment it will go powerfully. I don’t know if it is the problem of clutch plate?
Dang man. Sorry. Not sure what the problem could be. Doesn’t sound like clutch.
hello mate, what were the grooves on the clutch bell due to? how did you solve? did you tighten everything and it didn't move anymore? even my tuono v4 1100 has that flaw
Just left it. I guess it’s normal. Road great till 33,000 miles.
Is normal every rsv4 / touno has it. Dont worry
Whats the parts number for ebc clutch kit. I cant find the kit for my tuono factory v4 2016
Ebc srk race clutch www.af1racing.com/EBC-SRK-Race-Clutch-Kit
What model exactly? I cant find it in ebay
Hello, I have 1 question. The sharp side of steel lamellas, in which direction does it face? (outwards or inwards towards the gearbox?)
Inwards if I remember correctly
@@jeffo_511 great, that's how I put it together, it's just reassuring 😁 thank you
Hey Jeffo, can you tell me what size is the nut that holds the clutch bell, the big one on the middle you know what i mean? Thanks bud..
Not sure. 31mm or 28mm maybe.
Awesome, many thanks Jeffo 👍
nice video thanks
what is the right most gear? is it timed with other gears? I accidentally rotated crank shaft without the right most gear. There is no dot mark on the gear and I do not know if i can safely put it back
Ya. Not sure what to tell you. Sorry. I know some of those years don’t matter but one of them is important for timing. Not sure which one your taking about
@@jeffo_511 just googled around and it is the motor starter gear I am talking about. It comes off with the clutch cover so I didn't pay attention to it. So it seems it is not timed with other gears?
@@kruan2661 oh ya. Perfect. Thought u meant one of the other ones that are bolted on u took off. Glad u figured it out. I haven’t had that bike for few years so I forgot about that gear
@@jeffo_511 Thank you for replying!
Will the rsv4 friction plates fit in a tuono 1000r 2008 mate?
what's up brother, I have a 2016 Aprilia rsv4 and the clutch slips when I accelerate suddenly, do you think it's time to replace it?
Check your clutch lever isn’t to tight. Should be little slop before it grabs. Other than that yes, might be time to replace.
so Did EBC clutch still holding? My barnett clutch failed with few LC at the drag strip
The ebc are holding almost 7,000 miles. But haven’t done any launch control with the ebc. After burning the Barnett I stopped doing launches. Lol
Hey man, my clutch is slipping but before changing it I just want to make sure it’s done or nah.. the thing is that my lever start really gripping only at the very end but it also grip a little bit from the handle to the almost max.. so I can’t really adjust the cable or anything
Also you can adjust the rough adjustment down on the engine/clutch cover. If that doesn’t work and you have higher miles or done a lot of launch controls then probably time to replace. Def use the ebc.
@@jeffo_511 how much launch control can you done on a set of clutch before replacing them?
@@yuehuiliang7790 a lot. Just gotta give clutch time to cool off. Can’t do launch and another launch right away again. Give it at least couple min in between
@@jeffo_511 got it! I did 5 launch so far on a rsv4, was worry about the clutch wear
Helo brother ... Have u change anything in it
Nope. All fine. Just replaced the plates
@@jeffo_511 replaceing a new set of plate ??
Brader 99 didn’t change anything in it. Just replaced the clutched. Works great and has lasted another 8,000 miles so far
I will try tomorrow
But the sound is very loud ... Like tek tek tek ....😂
Hey I’m getting a leak from the top front most clutch cover area …do you any thoughts as to why ? Thanks
Did u use a new gasket?? Could be one of the alignment pins fell out. Or the case could of got nicked amd it’s not flat in that spot. U might have to take back apart and see what’s going on
@@jeffo_511 hey thank you ! No I didn’t use a new gasket … actually found out that the leak is coming from the spark plug drain hole but seems like it’s dissipating now??
@@jeffo_511 I will do this thank you
Ya. These motors do leak little out that hole from time to time. My 2016 rsv4 rf did it and my 2018 rsv4 rf has done it little
@@jeffo_511 oh ok cool thank you ….so ok to leave alone or should the spark plug gaskets be changed ?
Should’ve started from the beginning removing clutch case...
How long did you soak the clutch plates in oil?
Can u share a facebook account or Instagram account....of ur ... Need to ask about this .... On my bike i have lot of sound which comes form clutch side thought out gear side
