sammyboy Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 hi, i had a TY 175 and when i left it for a month or so the clutch used to stick, i found that just running the bike regardless worked! maybe try pulling away in fifth or sixth to encourage a bit of slip to clean the plates, if all else fails take it out and have a look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony283 Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 More often than not on an older machine the clutch will have dried out causing the cork to stick to the steel. Try draining the box and refill with ATF. Ride the bike while continually exercising the clutch. As the oil warms and the engine heats up it will penetrate and suddenly free off. Can sometimes take up to 1 hour of running. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave dix Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Drain the oil and use tqf (atf) and pull off in first and clutch in and stamp the rear brake a few times until it dis-engages and run for an hour or so then drain the tqf and re-fill with clean tqf , problem solved Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
