- The parts are finally here!
Today we replace the clutch basket and clutch discs as well as repack the exhaust. This video is more of a how to walk through of the process for these jobs.
The OEM clutch basket was worn past the point of filing the grooves on the fingers so replacement was the best option.

Very informative. TY
Haha does your wife know your using her toaster oven ?? Great work ,look forward to your next video !!
Never use an oven that you intend to cook food in again. This was our old toaster oven that I replaced with a super fancy one so she wouldn't be mad. 🤣😂🤣
My gear that touches the one behind the clutch basket that gos to the crank has some play is is supposed to have play has a key way in it
It'd be hard to say without seeing exactly which gear you mean- if you mean the primary gear, then I believe it should have a woodruff key
Bro this is reall helpfule and not hard to understand like mos videos thanks bro
I'm glad you found it helpful!
Did you get the gear to go in the basket by hammer or vise? About how long did you work at it? I'm rebuilding a 02 kx 125 and i can not get the gear to go more then 3/4 of the way in the new basket and thats basket in oven at 450 for 15min and gear in freezer for about 4-5hrs and hammering on it. Does it really take a beating to get it to go? If so I'll keep at it i dont really know what elses to do
I did end up using a hammer and patience. You really don't want to beat the snot out of it and risk it wallowing out the basket. I don't know why it was such a pain for me.
@alexdombi-weridetwo Yep that's the same boat I'm in. I'm afraid of warping or breaking the basket. I'm leaving the gear in freezer over night and going to try again tomorrow. Thanks for the info
In the video did you install the bigger gear backwards?
I don't think so, it's hard to say or remember. Sorry.
Freeze the gear while heating the basket.
It was in the freezer for about an hour. If I wasn't so pressed for time I would have left it in over night. 😕
My bike didn’t have a washer behind the inner basket what can I do about that?
I'd look on a website like Rocky Mountain for your specific model's clutch schematic and verify it is supposed to have one and see if you can buy it. The washers are important for spacing out all the components and keeping the clutch working as it should.
Ok i know this is probably a stupid qeustion but i pulled the inner clutch hub pressure plate off my 01 kx125 and am not sure if its supposed to go on a certain way or not
Can you clarify what you mean by inner clutch hub pressure plate. The pressure plate is the smooth outer piece that houses the springs. Do you mean the clutch hub itself? Or do you mean the spring ring that's between the primary gear and clutch basket?
@@alexdombi-weridetwo yep the pressure plate that houses the springs
The pressure plate that houses the springs does not need to be "clocked" or anything. As long as the holes line up for the bolts to thread in to the hub you should be good. If you look at 9:10 that is all you need to do.
Are you having issues with it going on?
@@alexdombi-weridetwo no I got it back together just wanted to make sure it wasn't going to explode or something lol thank you for the help though
In your disassembly, the washer was on top of the gear and under the plate that's riveted down, but when you put the gear on the wiseco basket you put the spring on first and then the gear ?
You're correct- I noticed it when editing the video. I thought I noted it with a caption during reassembly.
@@alexdombi-weridetwothanks for the explanation I see the captions now! I was 95% sure on the order and decided a 5 second clip from this video was enough 😅 I figured it out when my primary gear didn't quite line up.
Also when you did your clutch discs, on a kx125 they're cut tangentially and radially the service manual says to do the first and last disc with the cuts facing clockwise. Thanks for taking the time to make this video ❤
@@rhino720f That's great info! Thanks for sharing :)
@@alexdombi-weridetwo no idea how much it matters! And I only know this because I'm at that stage of my build right now but thought it was interesting, I don't ever remember doing that. Love the bike and channel buddy, new subscriber
Thanks so much for the kind words. 😊
Loose the music. Thanks
@mikewiggins1287 thanks for the feedback- since publishing this build series I've learned that not all people enjoy the same music as I do 😄
@@alexdombi-weridetwo its not even the music as much as its VERY loud compared to everything else, i appreciate the video very much regardless. Cheers!
@defect7862 I wish I could go back and do it differently. Thanks for the kind words, though 👍
