very good teaching, thank you very much.
Thanks 👍🏻👊🏻😉
Thanks for heads ups on slacking the plates in oil bath before assembling 😅
😉👍🏻
I just completed a clutch replacement on my Kawasaki 1500 Vulcan. Was it hard, yes but I did it and after watching your video as you said why not. Thank you so much because you saved me a lot of money and headaches.
Your video was excellent!!
Thanks Again,
Stephen Entrekin 😊
Well done 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👊🏻😁
Hi good day, the 3 small washes on my clutch are all concave can you tell me the right way to position them. Engine way in or out. Regards Tony
Thanks so much for the excellent video. I am about to undertake the exact thing, and will undoubtedly rewatch this a couple more times. Wish me luck.
You can do it Paul ! 👊🏻
Thank you. We were trying to get it back together and made all the mistakes you pointed out.
Great video series. I just bought a 2004 Vulcan Classic 1500. The clutch is slipping when it gets hot. I know that's the clutch fluid and slave cylinder, but if I need to do the full clutch, I may try (with a friend) to do it myself as that doesn't look very hard at all. Shop said if I needed new clutch it would be around $700 to $800. I'm hoping to get it done much cheaper myself.
I am sure you can, watch my videos mate ! 😉👍🤛🏍
Very enjoyable ,and informative ,thank you from Ireland.
Thanks Brian 👍🏍
I have a 2004 Vulcan Nomad 1500 FI that I think I'll be doing this to soon. I hardly have any clutch pull so it engages and disengages right at the outer limit of the clutch lever release. I think I'll try bleeding the master and slave cylinders first and see if that helps.
GREAT, informative video!!! AND funny too!!! I love this guy!!! He's got a sense of humor and no dumb, loud music in the video!!! Cant wait to see more!!!! : )
Thanks mate, spread the word 😉👍🏻👊🏻🏍
@@TheOldMechanic, will do!!! : )
Thanks mate 👍🏻👊🏻
Perfect movie! . Great visibility, information and instructions. Thank you greetings from Poland
Thanks Mikolaj 👍🏍
Thanks
Your welcome 👊🏻👍🏻😉
I love your attitude and how calm you are during the repair, I would be honored to have you work on my bike I dont suppose your in Edmonton LOL
Thanks for your kind words 🙏🏻👍🏻👊🏻😉
can you show where the 2 flat washer goes,thanks for sharing👍👍
Love your videos. Just great.
Part numbers would be nice. Friction plates, steel plates, etc. I like your videos. Thanks.
Hi Charles, good idea, next time I will do that too 😉👍🤛🏍
Excellent. Thank you.
I watched your video several times before trying it and everything happen and was as you said. I was very comfortable going into this project. My only problem is when I went to test it out my clutch wont disengage with the clutch lever. What did I do wrong?
love your video help me a lot
Your welcome 😉👍🏻👊🏻
You video was super helpful for me today, but as I was removing the screws from the cover I didnt realize they were different lengths, and now I'm having a hard time figuring out which ones go where! Could you please help!!??
Very informative video.
Glad it was helpful! 👍🏻👊🏻😉
THANK YOU I DID IT!! THANKS TO YOU GREAT JOB!!!
Great to read that Pepe 👍🏍
Spread the word huh 😂
I had to relieve pressure from the slave cylinder to install the final cover and retainer spring.
Well done
Great Video. Thank you for sharing. In my 96 D model, the clutch slips only when it's cold. As soon as it reaches operating temperature it works just fine. Any suggestions?
Do you use synthetic motor oil ?
I did not see you check the clutch release operation before replacing the chrome cover.
Did you pump the lever and watch the plates move? How much clearance will it have fanned open? Mine shows 1.4 mm using feeler gauges.
Great jod congratulations
Thank you so much 😀
Merci à toi
votre accueil
Awesome, is it the same torque specs for a Vulcan classic 1600?
Great video. 👍🏼
Thanks Edwin.
Thank you very much. Your video are excellent. However i am having trouble ordering the clutch plates. I pulled off 7 but when i look at ordering they only account for 4? Can you help me
Sorry for my late response John, I think you need the same amount as you got out.. 😉👍🏻👊🏻
I’m have a hard time getting the spring bolt to lock into the shaft. You made it look easy, any recommendations?
Hi Perfection, its a bit tricky as all the parts has to be perfect in place, I know. But keep your cool and just give it another go mate.
Leuke video heel leerzaam en lekker plat engels. Super goud !!! He hebt er een volger bij
thanks Leroy
@@TheOldMechanic geen probleem man ik ga er morgen aan beginnen .
Nou heb ik alleen geen momentsleutel kan ik de bout ook met een slagtol vast zetten mvg
Old Mac. I was wondering if you can answer a question. When I release the clutch to the bike, the motorcycle wants to jump forward and for some reason it also stalls out sometimes. The lever is too soft also. I have a 2001 Kawasaki 1500e classic. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you.
Randy.
I am going to send you an email 😉
hey old man great video. i just install a new clutch kit in my 99 vulan nomad . but i have a problem ,the bike wants to move forward when clutch leaver is pull all the way in.. did i done something wrong ?
Hi Old mechanic , I have a 2002 Kawasaki Vulcan nomad 1500 as well , decided to replace clutch plates , everything went smooth , according to your video , now I can’t get the clutch big nut off , try everything from air impact gun , rust penetrating lubricant , breaking bar wish about the way stuck my clutch rod and finally the candle 🕯 melting on it , nothing works so far any ideas o f how to get this done , I will appreciate it much , thanks Orlando .
Hi there , old mechanic, I figured out my torque wrench had fail , after fail attempts, finally my brother in-law came
Over with his 24 volts torque wrench and did the trick , I can’t believe after many approaches, finally the nut is loose and I’m in the process replace old plates with new ones , my piece of advice , is don’t matter how experience you have sometimes the tricks of the all school works , this case , the torque , I had exhausted old school acknowledge and it all came down to hood torque wrench , Cobalt 24 volts and a 27 mm socket , my advice, on this take , not always things go the way you picture , my philosophy, thanks for your videos who’s inspired me on the take of the Kawasaki Vulcan clutches replacement.👍
Hi Orlando, good to hear that you finaly got the nut loose. But I think that you used an impact gun and not a torque wrench to get that nut loose ?
@@TheOldMechanic , yes from the beginning I had used the impact gun but , impact gun was not working properly so a friend brought Cobalt impact gun and it took few seconds and it came loose , I had try it min first gears and I was still spinning , let’s hope nothing mess up , waiting for the gasket for the exhaust and cover to arrive , I decided also to order the Kawasaki cover gasket as you said it it I had the first one from Amazon and changes are is going to leak so my bets are on the Kawasaki gasket , so can’t go any further until them , thanks again for you very clear and detailed video.👍
I meant the Kobalt impact gun ,sorry , I had used the breaking bar after failing few times so the hub started to spin-off hopefully nothing got damage as I said .
I didn't think to check before I put it back together but now my clutch lever is tight and it will shift gears without using the clutch. Any thoughts on what could be the issue?
Is it the same for 1600 nomad?
is this somewhat similar to the Vulcan 2000 ?? VN2000?
Would this be the same for a 2008 Vulcan 1600?
Did you get the answer to this?
You never said which way the 3 bent washers were to go together
Great video lots of useful an helpful information however the view an example of how those 3 clutch limiter is not real visible as to how you set . Not your fault however I bent mine as I got frustrated an forced it on incorrectly 🤦♂️
Hi Joseph, I think I used these symbols In my video: ( ) thats the way those springs have to go in. Please have a look at my video again and as I allways note, don't skip any part of it, as you could mis an important part. And a tip..Never get frustrated..if it doesn't go well just leave it and sleep over it, and try the next day mate. 😉👍🤛🏍
@@TheOldMechanic I was having a hard time screwing the hub nut on the every time I tried to line up the pressure plate and those springs I kept dropping them so I was just trying to force . I had to buy new ones I think I got it this time though so I believe this is how you had )()
I am having a hell of a time getting the ring spring back on the hold the cover on…. Any idea why?
I know that it needs a bit of patients 😉👍🏻👊🏻
So I did notice something…. The cover is not interested far enough to expose the groove that the ring inserts into…. After I got the nut on and then the rod with the bearing on it I noticed it isn’t going in all the way do u know why?
Witam jakie grube przekładki sprzęgła założyć do vulkan1500.93.r 2 mm.bedzie dobrze?
How long did you soak the clutch plates
Hi Aron, they stood overnight, but I gues an hour orso would be good.
@@TheOldMechanic thank you
Heeft u ook een filmpje van de olie pomp tandwiel vervangen? Die van mij is zijn tandjes kwijt
Nee sorry
Vraagje .
Ik heb een vn1500 classic tourer gekocht uit 1998
En nu slipt die koppeling ook als ik vermogen vraag met optrekken .
Hoort dat bij deze motoren ?
Zo niet , wat zou ik dan moeten vervangen ?
De platen en de veer ?
Of zou de koppelings cilinder ook de oorzaak kunnen zijn ?!
Ik hoor graag van u 😀👍
Hallo Bennie, een slippende koppeling is nooit goed. Afhankelijk hoelang dat hij al slipt zijn de frictieplaten EN de stalen platen aan vervanging toe. De stalen platen checken op blauwe vlekken (te heet geworden) en of ze krom zijn, zo jah dan die ook vervangen. De koppeling cilinder zal het niet zijn, of hij zit vast, maar dat lijkt mij erg onwaarschijnlijk.
Succes 👍🤛🏍
De veren zou ik na meten en bij twijfel vervangen 😉
Hardstikke bedankt voor uw duidelijke antwoord .
Ik ga alles gewoon laten vervangen , dan ben ik er meteen van af .
Een goed weekend gewenst 👍👍👍
Jij ook 👍🤛🏍
Ik heb de koppeling dankzij uw filmpjes kunnen maken 😀
Mijn vn1500 loopt schakelt weer fantastisch en loopt als een zonnetje 👌
Bedankt voor het delen van uw ervaring 😉👍😉👍😉👍
clutch lever not clutch leaver lol
