Thank you!! I'm new to biking (passed my test 1 month ago) I thought it was the TCS but today I had it off and was still doing it! It's been sent back to the dealership under warranty luckily! This is a CB650R with 9738 miles on the clock. Thanks for confirming my suspicions as its currently being investigated.
Seems like I made the right choice to order a clutch kit a few days ago. I tried tuning the clutch cable, but either it slips when I open the throttle or it still binds when I pull the clutch lever. The latter is how I bought the bike, and is probably the reason why my clutch is burnt lol Thanks for the video!
Well done fella, and duhhh... me, same way as a car....so I guess maybe at 130 1 day, then couple weeks later couldn't get over 110 day, not shot but on its way out, or was it I closed gap on spark plug on manual, then realised I replaced them with iridium ones, obviously gap be maybe different!? 🤔.... definitely goes of the mark quicker than usual, a puzzle, don't we just love our, love and hate relationship with motorcycle lol 😂.... 👍 Ps, short straight to the point, demonstrating, no doubt you was waiting for that to happen!? 🤔 ..no doubt your clutch fluid system be working, nice green, so must be a kawasaki, what make!?, love the way it looks all even....anyways fella....9 out of 10... 👍
My zrx1200 is doing that now but not so hard. Can still get on it pretty well but it seems 4th gear and 5th gear slip if i drop gear and get on it. Thanks for the video, i wasnt sure exactly what it was but this sounds exackly like mine when it does it. High rev, no speed increase then catch and go.
my zrx1100 159000 km about 100k miles never a clutch problem,never replaced the timing chain,only oil filters and 2 times th sparkplugs, had a radiator issue due to a bad t-stat ,that locked and bluow the bottom radiator line,other than that,never an issue and by the way i always used 10/40 castrol car motor oil the cheapest i could find,that motor went on another bike and was recycled,and runs like a rolex,i went to a kawa z750s 2005 that i am super happy about if i am on this page is because i do have a issue ,loud gear box and a short squeel in the morning when it goes into gear, also at ih speeds it seems to find asecondary neutral goin from third to fourth gear
and as i found out also check the steel plates too ..sometimes the clutch is fine (the cork part) but the steel rings burnt and shot .. so probably change all lot for peace of mind
When I let the clutch out (dirt bike) there is a now a moment (often) where its not engaged, then after a second it will seem to lock up and engage finally. The clutch has many hours, but I'm asking if this very specific action is pretty common when the clutch is going out, or would it likely be something else?
aw man my street xr400 is starting to do this, not nearly as bad and still totally drivable but I've noticed the clutch slipping when gunning it in a higher gear it revs up for a quick moment then the clutch grabs again
I bought a new chinese motorcycle with cg125 engine, exactly same symptoms high rpms but low speed. everything is fine carb engine revving as it should .in first gear the bike should jump when I give It full throttle It just lags like the power is not transmitted properly.
Can it also cause the bike to bog?? Mine starts to big around 5k (it’s a 125cc) and as it’s bogging my rpm drops completely and as shown here sometimes it flies up like that
Thats very heplful video... Thanks a lot. but the only thing i am not understanding is, is it always necessary to go faster when the rpm increases? I mean the bike may already be in the maximum speed for that particular gear. then in that condition bike cannot go faster than that speed even if the rpm is increased. Please correct me if i am missing something here...
Mines slipping only at high rpm, 9-10,000 rpm, it's an fz1. I lose all power up there and engine still revved out. I also cannot shift from 2nd to 3rd at high rpm, probably same in all gears. It still pulls like crazy up to 9000 rpm. I have to let engine rev down to around 7000 to be able to upshift.
While shifting gears...My gear gets stuck and engine makes a loud sound.... Also, when I accelerate...the pick up is after some 2-3 seconds lag... Is it gear shift problem or clutch plate issue ???
@@Adikxx yeah i replaced both, besides they come as a package anyway, didnt replace the springs tho, they were still good, just the fric plates were worn af
Yoy said replace the clutch what if you already replaced the clutch and your on a brand new clutch what if it was an old clutch that wasnt working properly anymore so you bought a new clutch and that new clutch gained slipping from first drive what do you do about that
Ive recently bought an RSV mille and dont have this trouble but it wont clutch up wheelie in 2nd gear like youd expect. Instead it seems to just slip the clutch and then accelerate like hell once youve released the clutch lever. Sign clutch is on its way out? Apparently it had a new sprag clutch not long ago but seems odd it wont wheelie
My motorcycle turn on perfectly but does not move neither stall when I release the clutch. It's perfectly changing the gears in stationary position but it doesn't run when clutch released. What could be the problem?
My bike fazer6 02 is like this the last month full trottle the revs gov up but the speed dont maybe 50mph max through all the gears runs and idles fine but soon as you open th e trottle goes nowhere would it be the clutch
My clutch lever feels lighter/weaker than usual, it used to feel tight and more responsive during engagement, could this be my clutch going? If not what could it be?
does the engine shake harder then usual at the same time? same syptom of high RPM and no more speed, but the engine also feels like its trying to shake itself apart. Engine revs out fine in neutral. and shakes at WOT in any gear.
would you ever hear something like a binding sound? vs feeling it slip? I heard a strange sound and I thought it was the front brake binding a bit but then it happened again and I was thinking it was coming from the clutch. Does that make any sense?
i've got a 125cc engine nd i've replaced the clutch but it slips, any ideas ? i've read on forums that i could be the oil that makes that slipping in my bike's clutch, am using an 10W40 oil
I recently changed chain and both front and rear sprockets. After replacing the chain it got loosened frequently. After few weeks there's a noise coming from front sprocket area. And gear shifting and acceleration wasn't smooth. I got it checked from a mechanic but he said it's all fine. And now there's a noise whenever I release clutch after shifting to 1st gear. It only happens in the morning or after keeping bike stationary for few hours. What could be the reason? I recently changed clutch plates as well.
Hey man thanks for the video. I have the same issue on my SFV650 Suzuki but I am wondering if I actually have to change the whole clutch set or is changing the plates enough? It only has 20 000km on it.
I once changed just friction plates on vfr 750 and it still continued slipping. I recommend changing the steel plates too for piece of mind( unless you're sure they aren't warped or glazed) New spings are a must too!
adikxx83 Honestly my issue is budget... I can't afford to change everything. What happened is just an overlook on my part. I didn't keep an eye on my oil level so the bike got really thirsty and that's what I think did it. Replacing the complete set at just 20000km sounds like too much for me considering that it is supposed to keep going till around 50000km.
can you give me advice please? my fz6 2007 goes into gear but does not move. any gear i put it in it will rev but the bike goes no where and it doesnt die on me. this just happened trying to find the problem
So I think my situation is the same as this so, ya of course if I have a fast bike ya know, I wanna do some races and stuff and I recently had a little race a little bit ago and as soon as I gave it gas it did basically the same thing to where my rpms would go up but not my speed and then after a little bit its like it caught on to the gear or something and then it started accerlating but then I shift onto the next gear amd give it full throttle and again it seems like I am in neutral for a sec and then it catches on and starts accelerating, does this sound like a shot clutch or is this just somethimg wrong that I am doing?
@@Adikxx I’m going to replace them as soon as possible lol I figured that’s what it was and it was under warranty so it wouldn’t have cost the dealership anything to replace it, it was within 1,000 that it started slipping
@@ronalddomingue5037 I ended up having to replace the clutch I did it myself took me forever but was the best feeling in the world when I finally fixed it was almost worth the bike not working.

My bike even worst , slipping in first gear and can't even move damn it
Did you replace clutch?
my situation is different, when I engage clutch in any gear rev going up too much with open throttle.
Perfect video
Thanks you !
My bikes doing this, but its only done 1900 miles. Should this even happen? Or does it just mean the previous owner didn't have a clue how to use one?
My bandit does that but it’s the tire spinning
just replacing the clutch discs (plates) fixes it? thanks
Friction plates, steel plates and springs is what i would go for. Some people go without steel plates but imho that's a shitty idea.
@@Adikxx yeah i replaced both, besides they come as a package anyway, didnt replace the springs tho, they were still good, just the fric plates were worn af
Can a shot clutch make shifting difficult as well?
Thanks for not waffling!!👍
I had new clutch plates put in on my 2010 bmw s1000rr and its doing this over 9,000 rpms

does the engine shake harder then usual at the same time? same syptom of high RPM and no more speed, but the engine also feels like its trying to shake itself apart.
Engine revs out fine in neutral. and shakes at WOT in any gear.

Bike's not sipping but it won't disengage the gears !!???
Good video man
I’d put stronger springs as well
Does it still accelerate if you keep it in the revs it slips in?
Because mine does that and im wondering how dead my clutch is
May i know what model of your renthal bar?

@@sweatfjt Hi, changing the friction plates fixed then problem for me. 25 000km later and it’s still working. I did not change the steel plates.

can you give me advice please? my fz6 2007 goes into gear but does not move. any gear i put it in it will rev but the bike goes no where and it doesnt die on me. this just happened trying to find the problem
Sounds like either your clutch cable is way out of adjustment or your clutch is completely burnt out / has no friction material left
Got 2k miles out my ninja 400 and the clutch is completely fuckin fried. 330 bucks for the parts to replace and 180 for labor🤦🏾♂️
So I think my situation is the same as this so, ya of course if I have a fast bike ya know, I wanna do some races and stuff and I recently had a little race a little bit ago and as soon as I gave it gas it did basically the same thing to where my rpms would go up but not my speed and then after a little bit its like it caught on to the gear or something and then it started accerlating but then I shift onto the next gear amd give it full throttle and again it seems like I am in neutral for a sec and then it catches on and starts accelerating, does this sound like a shot clutch or is this just somethimg wrong that I am doing?
Drop a gear and shed a tear
Damn I just watched a 20 minute video and couldn't learn a thing about if my clutch is done or not. this only took 30 secs
That was my goal. Showing it quickly and to the point.
another sign maybe you dont feel a strong engine break.
so is this a full clutch replacement or just a clutch pack?
In most cases friction plates and springs will solve the problem. In some cases steel plates need to be replaced too.
So i replaced the clutches on my 2021 ktm duke 200 and she seemed fine for a few weeks but suddenly she started slipping in 4th-5th. Any tips?
what exactly did you replace?
I’ve been told it was my cable was loose and they tightened it, yea it changed for a few days then right back to slipping under rev
Clutch plates fried

just started doing this today
Very helpful thank you.
What if you just needed your clutch lever or cable adjusted
Then you would adjust the clutch cable..
in this happen does need to change the metal plate cause my friction plate look not very bad . but the metal plate is burn color .
Yes change the steels
my bandit doing this
i thought its clutch
im upset. in 3 years ive did this to my cb300 f smh how can i prevent this from happening?
Try not to feather your clutch in traffic.
Ok so to see if my clutch is slipping just pin the throttle as hard and fast as you can gotcha! *hops on my litre bike* 😂
Yes that's precisely it. Congratulations for figuring that out, you should be proud of yourself! 👌
@@Adikxx yikes it was a joke, you sounded sort of condescending there.
Daughter has a dong fang 250,clutch slips major bad, only 600 miles???
its a dong fang...
Really only like 200$ usd to replace it?
New EBC clutch friction plates, steel plates and heavy duty springs cost 160 bucks all together. Cheap as chips.
mine bike becomes powerless in initial rpm and as soon as it hits 4000, it starts to pull what may be the problem? can that be engine problem may be?
Most probably carbs. Clogged pilot jets or some other carb related problem.
@@Adikxx ok i will check that. Thank you sir.
