chewy Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Most people put it down to oil you use which makes a big difference from automatic transmision fluid to straight 30 gear oil. The thinner the better for clutch release. However there is also the phenomenon of friction (that sounds trite) but if you have 2 perfectly flat surfaces (and they are coated in oil) they will stick together .I think a while ago it was discussed regarding other bikes but from memory the solution (essentially) was/is to interupt that surface flatness a little peening or denting the surface... don't ask me how!). Maybe just taking the plates out and shuffling them before reasembly will be enough. tThis all assumes that your hydraulics are working properly. hope this is helpfull (first action strip it out and reasemble 20 mins. and try lighter oil) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
