Thank you! I wish I did this a year ago! 2 minutes adjusting the cable and the bike moves like a totally different bike. Probably a couple years before the clutch actually needs work!
2007 Yamaha YZ250F and at a stop in first gear with the clutch lever pulled in, the bike will not go into neutral and the bike wants to creep forward. I have taken all the slack out of the clutch cable, and adjusted the ASV unbreakeable clutch lever, and it still will not go into neutral unless i shift it in neutral before i come to a complete stop.
When I was working at the local motorcycle shop I could not believe how many people came in with clutch cables bango tight. We would have customers come in all the time for diag on slipping clutches that took 20 minutes to two hours of labor to fix on Dirtbike's and it was end up costing well over 100 dollars almost every time. The best was when you would do the guy a favor and lube and adjust the cable to spec to be told by the customer that we messed up his now perfectly functional clutch
Good video. Method I used to adjust cable free play servicing bikes was to turn the steering to full lock both sides, one side usually has less free play than the other as the cable bends more around the steering head, then adjust so it just has free play on the tight side. That usually gives enough straight ahead and ensures at least some free play even on full lock. Same for throttle cables.
Yeah finally someone who doesnt say a sticking clutch is slipping :D Almost every time someone says their clutch is slipping I need to ask, does it SLIP or stick?
Hello, I just got my dirtbike "repaired" I had a broken crankcase and kick start gear, but my transmission before was working fine, now when I start the bike, pop it in first gear to take off, only to find out I'm back in neutral, I'll kick down to put it back on first , only to be able to kick it in first over and over, occasionally it stays on first then seems to slip out of it, only way I got it to work is if I literally hold my foot pushing it down to keep it In first gear, what do you think it could be? Any info/help would be greatly appreciated!
Great video. One thing to add, if you wear the clutch too much, in the pinch you can put washers between screws and springs, this will work for a while, just to let you go home.
Love your videos Cam, clear, precise, easy to follow and interesting. You’ve come a long way since your first videos, much more confident and engaging in your presentations. Great camera work and sound too, very slick. Keep up the good work, btw how is that cr250 rebuild coming along. G’day from a land down under👍🏽
Thank you bro!! Very educational as always. I just finished my top end on my 01 cr125. I'm trying to work all the bugs out. Loving what u do bro, keep up the good work!!
My bike even worst , slipping in first gear , already send it to local workshop and seems like the machanic doesn't fix the bike And i have to pay for new clutch accessories damn son
Could someone help me? I bought a new clutch lever for my Honda XR400 but even at max adjustment, the clutch slips (the clutch plates are pretty much apart from each other). I think the lever is to big (the space between the adjuster and the lever itself is too wide) for the cable, is that possible? And is there a way around it other than buying a new lever? Would really appreciate some help!
i stripped my drain bolt on my rm125, i ordered a m14x1,25 dolt and tap. Tap drill for m14x1,25 is 12,8mm drilled the hole and tapped it. screw in the new bolt and gave it a little snug. the copper washer seals it. tip: never use imperial anything on a metric bike or car. it´ll just mess up things in the future. metric is allways best!
Great video. I noticed my clutch is very stiff. Might take a look inside my bike. It's a 50cc moped tho. Noticed it slipping much today. Don't know what happend before that. Thanks alot man
i have a 2020 husq TC 125 and the manual doesn't mention anything about minimum plate thickness. All I know is that brand new they are 1.95mm and they are measuring about 1.86-1.89...clutch is slipping and oil smells burnt...any suggestions? inner and outer basket looks fine, pressure plate in pretty good shape, and the metal plates aren't too discolored....
I'm a little late, but, researching our own issue.. I'll try to explain, I'm not the rider tho. 22 KTM 85 (Lynks racing 105 head). He stopped & said it's not as powerful, like it needs cleared out. Local track guy thinks it's the clutch, Installed new pack, still same symptoms.. I'm currently poking around on it & have noticed I can push it while in gear, with a little drag. So, maybe the clutch isn't releasing... Idk, I'm not a dirt bike rider, or mechanic & I have a decent level 85 rider, so I'm learning... Ugh.
I have a kawi Vulcan Classic 1500 that has sat unridden for quite a while. After starting, when I click into first gear, the bike lurches forward and stalls, which says to me the clutch is not engaging. Can someone suggest how I can determine if this is a pushrod problem or likely the plates need to be replaced?
Another great video! My suggestion for a vid and something that is easy enough to do is a compression test and/or a leak down test. Something that should be done at regular intervals.
Hey, man hope you see and can respond to my comment in October of 2020 but I'm desperate because my bike's clutch slips, and I just changed the plates 2 months ago and my clutch is slipping again man, I don't think they've burned again, is it possible that it slips but they aren't burned? That there's only a problem with the cables? Or the clutch release adjuster nut is too tight or too loose? Hope you respond bro, I don't want to send my bike to the mechanics and spend another 150 bucks! (BTW your videos are awesome and they help a lot, i just don't understand a lot about clutches and I need a bit of extra help, keep up the good work man!)
Any idea what could be the issue in my 2007 rmz- 250 clutch. it started to not stay still when in gear and clutch pulled, so i tigthtened the cable. 10 min of riding and same thing again. again, i took all the "loose" out from the cable by using the adjuster in the cable itsel( the fast-adjuster is broken on my lever), finally i opened the clutch and checked the plates and and checked for possible grooves on the basket. nothing. well, I put it together and boom it felt like a new bike....for 5-15 mintues until i almost couldnt stop properly with the clutch lever pulled alla the way. again, i adjusted the cable a little more tight and went riding, worked fine....for another 5-10 minutes until it started AGAIN to beg more of "taking out of the loose in the cable" it doesnt SEEM to be slippinng the clutch, it just stops working properly after it warms up. and when i look at the part where the cable goes in the engine end, when I pull the clutch all the way, it moves normally but when i release it doesnt seem to go all the way back to its normal position, if i push it back with my finger theres like quite a few millimeters that it goes back even tho its not the cable that keeps it fro m not resetting back to its normal starting point. This is my first THIS "new" dirtbike even thio ive had A LOT of different bikes in the past.
Need help tech ,question 😫, I have Honda cb125r the clutch lever sticks half way through a gear change ,which creates high revs and failed transition!is it the cable that needs adjusting, or gulp a new clutch kit .thank you .
Hi i purchased 03 cr250, felt like it ran okay however the bike wont start on first gear even i press the clutch all the way in the bike will move forward, is it common thing on 2 stroke dirtbike or is it my clutch?
so hypothetically lets say some idiot (totally not me) revved out their bike in 5th gear thinking it was in 1st because they bent their shifter and roasted their clutch. what would mechanically be going on there? actual clutch pack distortion?
I have a problem with my 2015 yz250 its goes into neutral when i try to shift into 4th gear! It happen after put to much transmission oil in it by mistake
My bike ideal good but as I put it in 1 gear if I done keep giving it gas it will shut off so I am thinking that the clutch slipping cause I got everything do over on the bike and it don’t hind the ideal when in first gear
8-12 hours of ride time seems like a pretty normal service interval for a dirt bike if you ask me... My 07' DS650X recommends somewhere around 20 hours = every 4 rides.
There is only a small amount of oil in the tranny, so any contamination like (clutch material) quickly pollutes the luburcant. There is no oil filter either. Hope this helps.
My bike clutch is so loose there is so much play in the lever and I was riding it and the wheel locked up when I changed gear and made the bike stall why ? Please help
Is there a way to change the engagement point on the clutch? Mine isn't sticky or slipping but it doesn't engage until the very last second of release on the lever. Barely touch the lever and it disengages the clutch. It is quite annoying. Would like it mid way like all my other bikes, but everything I do, including changing the clutch pack, doesn't help. CBR250r wife constantly complains about it and is now wanting to ride my bikes instead. Can't have that lol
My old yz250 doesn't idle worth a shit. Thought it might be too rich at 32:1 so I tried 40:1 like the manual calls for and still didn't work. Idk if I should change the jets or if the floats are off?
What can cause my YZ250 to try to pull in 1st with clutch engaged? If I toy with the throttle it won’t stall, but if I pull clutch and drop into first it’ll stall. It’ll try to pull while clutch is pulled but it’ll die if I don’t give it gas. It don’t pull hard enough that I can’t stop it. Please help!!!
My clutch on my 2003 ttr125e is sticking when I pop the clutch and after shifting, and when I give it more than 50% throttle it sticks, but slow on it's fine. Plates? Basket? Springs? help.
My motorcycle does not move neither stall when I release the clutch. It's perfectly changing the gears but it doesn't run when clutch released. What could be the problem?
Slipping clutches can not be fixed by adjusting cable, no way! You need clutch adjusting procedure w/o having to take apart clutch assembly like shown here. Just perform standard clutching ADJUSTING PROCEDURE. That's it. Many video explains this procedure never explain the purpose of it. Slipping clutches are DESIGNED to be handled by this adjustment !!!
if 0:05 this is happening but only after a few laps (3-4), but when cold works as usual do i need to change the dics? i’ve a ktm 150 2022 with hydraulic clutch
Great video!!! My Daughters dong fang 250 slipping bad only 600 miles, got hot during a parade, as a matter a fact all the bikes Harleys, Yam, Hondas overheated!!!! Not my VROD!!!!! only prob I had was finding the spec for VROD friction plates, slipping @19K miles, finally found it and they were right at the min. Replaced with slipper clutch, never need 3rd geaR AGAINST old school hogs!!!!
Hey im having a problem with my pit bike, it revs up fine the clutch is adjusted right, but it use to go Much faster than it does now, before I could hit probably 45-50 now it only goes 30mph, like i said it revs up fine clutch adjusted but it just doesn't hit any speed at all.
This is gonna sound weird because when my clutch is pulled in all the way the bike moves and not very slow either. But when Im giving it throttle it feels like the clutch isn't disengaged all the way
Hey man, just picked up a 2005 CRF450R, it had a broken perch and I replaced it with a nicer 1 finger easy pull perch but being a noob I rode it roughly 20 miles with it adjusted to tight slipping the clutch. Now I have a loud screeching sound coming from the clutch. Won’t be able to get inside the clutch for a few days but my question is, is that noise a common sign of bad clutch plates? Also it looks as if the fluid was slightly low as well so should I be worried about transmission damage?
What is the common problem you have with your bikes?
Sick video
Cameron Niemela drowning them in the uk fuel injected bikes are horrible to sort once drowned and that happens alot in the uk trails
Bolts vibrate out
Jack Callahan you have stripped the threads or just arent tightening them enough or need to use blue locktight
my most common problem is ...they run out of gas! ;)
Thank you! I wish I did this a year ago!
2 minutes adjusting the cable and the bike moves like a totally different bike. Probably a couple years before the clutch actually needs work!
If you can't tell if it is slipping or not, listen back-to-back.
Clutch slipping - 0:05
Not slipping - 14:43
These videos really help me out a lot, very informative and gives good guidance in terms of what to expect and what to look out for.
Thanks Rudi!
I run Walmart brand ATF Type F in my cr125 transmission. Very smooth. And extremely cheap. Like $2.50/quart or something.
2007 Yamaha YZ250F and at a stop in first gear with the clutch lever pulled in, the bike will not go into neutral and the bike wants to creep forward. I have taken all the slack out of the clutch cable, and adjusted the ASV unbreakeable clutch lever, and it still will not go into neutral unless i shift it in neutral before i come to a complete stop.
You'll have to pull apart the clutch and check the basket for notching
When do you have to replace the all the clutch plate?
If the plates don't meet the minimum thickness they need to be replaced.
My clutch plate bolts are too tight, how do I loosen them without the hole thing spinning?
You'll have to use a quick jerk with the ratchet to loosen it. Or an impact driver
Hey i found a 2005 ttr230 on craigslist it needs cosmetics and the carb cleaned according to the guy and he’s asking $600 is it worth it?
Oh yeah that's a good deal!
My problem is I’m fighting between having enough free play and being able to fully disengage it.
When I was working at the local motorcycle shop I could not believe how many people came in with clutch cables bango tight. We would have customers come in all the time for diag on slipping clutches that took 20 minutes to two hours of labor to fix on Dirtbike's and it was end up costing well over 100 dollars almost every time.

Method I used to adjust cable free play servicing bikes was to turn the steering to full lock both sides, one side usually has less free play than the other as the cable bends more around the steering head, then adjust so it just has free play on the tight side.
That usually gives enough straight ahead and ensures at least some free play even on full lock.
Same for throttle cables.
Good tip, thanks!
Whats up with the CR250??
Keep up the work man and where's the cr250 build videos
He said in a "post" on his channel he's waiting for backordered engine parts because the CR250 is not exactly a new bike with an abundance of parts.
Nick Childs thanks for that Just never seen the post
00¹po pool
Yeah finally someone who doesnt say a sticking clutch is slipping :D Almost every time someone says their clutch is slipping I need to ask, does it SLIP or stick?
What's the difference my is having some issues

ddddduuuude the cr 250 ??????????
He is waiting on parts to arrive *;)*
He is waiting for some parts for the engine! This is the reason for no videos about the 250!
Love your videos Cam, clear, precise, easy to follow and interesting.
You’ve come a long way since your first videos, much more confident and engaging in your presentations.
Great camera work and sound too, very slick.
Keep up the good work, btw how is that cr250 rebuild coming along.
G’day from a land down under👍🏽
Thanks for the kind words! The 250 is still awaiting a lot of engine parts so that's holding things up at the moment.
Mine grabs when cold but stops when warm is that normal
My sons CRF 150F wont shit into 2nd gear. Do you think its time for a new clutch? Or kno what would cause that to happen?
Ha! 4:26 There is a CR250 engine on the stand waiting for some parts!! 😉
You’ve got a very comprehensive tutorial! Keep up the good works, man!
Another sign your basket has grooves is if the bike wants to stall or go forward a bit when you put it in gear with the clutch pulled in
Good video thanks alot!! my cable definitely needed adjusting & wasn't 100% sure about it..
Thank you bro!! Very educational as always. I just finished my top end on my 01 cr125. I'm trying to work all the bugs out. Loving what u do bro, keep up the good work!!
Some CR's have aluminium clutch discs thar wear too. Steel ones doesn't
My bike even worst , slipping in first gear , already send it to local workshop and seems like the machanic doesn't fix the bike
And i have to pay for new clutch accessories damn son

Would really appreciate some help!
This happens to me when I try to switch to 3rd and 4th gear my bike just revs out. And idk why. And I have a semi auto Chinese pit bike. So pls help
As usually absolutely awesome "how to" video! Great picture, great sound, detailed and clear explanations!
Thanks Taras!
Should say just snug in the drain bolt Cameron or get ready to do a time sert video for all the stripped plugs out there.
i stripped my drain bolt on my rm125, i ordered a m14x1,25 dolt and tap.
Tap drill for m14x1,25 is 12,8mm
drilled the hole and tapped it. screw in the new bolt and gave it a little snug. the copper washer seals it.
tip: never use imperial anything on a metric bike or car. it´ll just mess up things in the future. metric is allways best!
Wow, excellent video. You make it all look so easy. Makes me want to tear into my DRZ400SM just for the experience...and see how the plates are doing.
Tx Cameron for very detailed and slow explications. I'm just bought my first yz125. I'm learning a lot of stuff from your YT channel.
Great video. I noticed my clutch is very stiff. Might take a look inside my bike. It's a 50cc moped tho. Noticed it slipping much today. Don't know what happend before that. Thanks alot man
Man after watching this my clutch problem is literally fixed!! Wow so simple and easy bro great video thanks brother

Man you're the best
Hey man love your vids, but why don't you just take the brake pedal off?
Joran Prins takes more time
I'm a little late, but, researching our own issue..

For a slipping cutch does you rmps still go high but there’s no power and little acceleration ? @camron nimela
K2T productions it’s like you still have your clutch in, but it’s not in if that makes sense
I love your videos like this so when I get a bike I know how to do stuff like this. Can't wait to get a bike
Thanks for watching man!
Hi i purchased 03 cr250, felt like it ran okay however the bike wont start on first gear even i press the clutch all the way in the bike will move forward, is it common thing on 2 stroke dirtbike or is it my clutch?

Y u engine brake
He not dat smart as all (actually not all of them) the moped boys in Finland XD
I have a problem with my 2015 yz250 its goes into neutral when i try to shift into 4th gear! It happen after put to much transmission oil in it by mistake
“Do you have clutch that is slipping?” Proceeds to gun it...didn’t see a slip
Hello my dirt bike takes off when I’m first gear and holding in clutch anybody know wats wrong with it
GOOD JOB BRO, WHAT DO YOU THINK THAT THE HIDRAHULIC CLOUTCH ITS BETTER?
laying the bike down on its side trick is goddamn genius
My bike ideal good but as I put it in 1 gear if I done keep giving it gas it will shut off so I am thinking that the clutch slipping cause I got everything do over on the bike and it don’t hind the ideal when in first gear
someone explain me why an oil change for every 5 to 6 rides isnt ridiculous overkill
Kenny McCormick it all depends on the way you ride in my opinion
i guess he meant .5-6 days of riding. not 5-6 times 15 minutes...6days of 3 hours riding each day is 18 hours of running ..
5-6 rides is overkill, but dirtbikes are often run hard and through dirty environments, so an oil change is cheap insurance
8-12 hours of ride time seems like a pretty normal service interval for a dirt bike if you ask me...
My 07' DS650X recommends somewhere around 20 hours = every 4 rides.
There is only a small amount of oil in the tranny, so any contamination like (clutch material) quickly pollutes the luburcant. There is no oil filter either. Hope this helps.
my 125 clutch is slipping on gears 3-6 after 8k rpm is the problem in the discs or cable
How can you tell if your cluch cable is bad? I think mine is bcause I have no play in the leaver when it engages the cluch Properly
My bike clutch is so loose there is so much play in the lever and I was riding it and the wheel locked up when I changed gear and made the bike stall why ? Please help
how can I fix the problem where my bike doesn't move until I almost fully let go of the clutch lever?
You change your oil after 8 hours of drive time? Damn I’m doing it wrong then
Is there a good way of removing the outer clutch basket without the special tool ?
So my clutch cable is turned the most way out because when it was far in it would die after letting out in first
You are a great teacher,thanks for the video.
Thank for for watching!
Great video my Man!! Just learned a lot of staff, thanks for shearing your knowledge, cheers bro.
I appreciate that man!
I didn’t realize that’s the reason my bike sound like that and why it seem like it only shift 4 gears
This problem happend to Tyler Monagan’s kx125😆 Nice video!
Yeah I saw that!
Wow... i change my oil every other ride, so every 2 hours. I guess its not necessary.
..again an awsome video...even the trick with the break pedal explaned...thx
Thanks man!
Is there a way to change the engagement point on the clutch? Mine isn't sticky or slipping but it doesn't engage until the very last second of release on the lever.

Thank you for doing this. Your chanel is amazing, learned a lot from you AND saved some money.
Perfect because my bike has a slipping clutch
Where can I buy a clutch for a viper left side for 2001
what about the sharp side and beveled side of the clutch plates
The beveled edge goes up
Something to keep in mind is to not use extentions on your torque wrenches
Thanks for the video! I really appreciate it. Turns out I used the wrong oil, so it should be a quick fix.
Great video! Very informational
Thank You!
Mine only slips more when real warm, 250 is this normal.
My clutch is slipping in 5th and 5th but not 4th gear
I only need a new clutch bottom end top and flywheel carb and bearings for my wheelies but thanks
Thanks for the video great explanation
Thank you so much bro this helped me out.
My old yz250 doesn't idle worth a shit. Thought it might be too rich at 32:1 so I tried 40:1 like the manual calls for and still didn't work. Idk if I should change the jets or if the floats are off?
I start off by adjusting the fuel and idle screws. If that doesn't do it you'll need to re-jet. Also doesn't hurt to set float height too
What can cause my YZ250 to try to pull in 1st with clutch engaged? If I toy with the throttle it won’t stall, but if I pull clutch and drop into first it’ll stall. It’ll try to pull while clutch is pulled but it’ll die if I don’t give it gas. It don’t pull hard enough that I can’t stop it. Please help!!!
Check your cable slack adjustment like :40. If that doesn't fix it, replace clutch plates
Great video , damn love the space you have were he can just let it rip on the grass !
For my proplem I clutch it put it didn't move
My clutch on my 2003 ttr125e is sticking when I pop the clutch and after shifting, and when I give it more than 50% throttle it sticks, but slow on it's fine. Plates? Basket? Springs? help.
My motorcycle does not move neither stall when I release the clutch. It's perfectly changing the gears but it doesn't run when clutch released. What could be the problem?
what was your fix to your problem.. i am having same problem
Slipping clutches can not be fixed by adjusting cable, no way!
You need clutch adjusting procedure w/o having to take apart clutch assembly like shown here.
Just perform standard clutching ADJUSTING PROCEDURE. That's it.
Many video explains this procedure never explain the purpose of it.
Slipping clutches are DESIGNED to be handled by this adjustment !!!
I don’t get it tho... you just tore it apart and put it back together exactly how it was before and now it works??
tore it apart to inspect, and measure wear, check adjustment down at motor and handlebars if clutch is slipping
Changed my clutch lever and clutch cable now the bike wont start 🤦🏾♂️
The clutch has nothing to do with starting the bike as long as your in neutral
if 0:05 this is happening but only after a few laps (3-4), but when cold works as usual do i need to change the dics? i’ve a ktm 150 2022 with hydraulic clutch
How about clutch creep? With clutch lever pulled in, disengaging the clutch, my 2013 crf250r pulls forward slightly. Why? How do I fix that?
Great video!!! My Daughters dong fang 250 slipping bad only 600 miles, got hot during a parade, as a matter a fact all the bikes Harleys, Yam, Hondas overheated!!!!

Hey man, just picked up a 2005 CRF450R, it had a broken perch and I replaced it with a nicer 1 finger easy pull perch but being a noob I rode it roughly 20 miles with it adjusted to tight slipping the clutch. Now I have a loud screeching sound coming from the clutch. Won’t be able to get inside the clutch for a few days but my question is, is that noise a common sign of bad clutch plates? Also it looks as if the fluid was slightly low as well so should I be worried about transmission damage?
