- Have you ever wondered how a factory mechanic would do a number of bike maintenance tasks? Well, wonder no longer. We have teamed up with Namura Technologies and former factory mechanic Scott Adkins of Pro SX MX Tech to show you exactly how the professional teams in the pits of Monster Energy Supercross and Lucas Oil Pro Motocross go about taking care of their rides.
Scotty's got credentials, too; he's worked as a mechanic on both series for 12 years and wrenched with some top talent like Nick Wey, Ryan Sipes, Jeremy Martin, and Christophe Pourcel, to name a few. So sit back, relax, and in this installment, you'll learn how to properly replace a clutch.
AT A GLANCE:
Remove the brake pedal spring.
Remove the clutch cover bolts and cover.
Remove the six bolts that hold the springs inside, then remove springs.
Remove the pressure plate.
Remove pins.
Reach inside and then remove the old clutch plates.
Now with all the old plates removed you can start installing the new clutch.
Start with a fiber plate, then a steel. Always make sure the sharp edges are facing out. Once you get one fiber and one steel started you can then begin to reinstall the pins into place. Then you can continue replacing the plates. Fiber, then steel. Repeat until they're all in.
Next, you'll put on the pressure plate.
Reinstall the bolts and springs that hold the pressure plate in. Once you get them all started you'll need to get out a torque wrench and tighten them down to manufacture spec. Check your owner's manual. When torquing them down use a crisscross pattern so they're all even.
Reinstall the cover. Again, use the torque wrench to tighten the cover bolts to manufacture spec.
Reinstall the brake pedal spring and always make sure to pump the brake. That's it!

digging how Scott Adkins shifted from being in fighting movies to being a professional dirt bike mechanic.
Is that a factory clutch? Nothing is mentioned about the outer plates having a different thickness than all the other plates, and the pressure plate system does not appear the same as stock.
Do I have to buy anything else after the clutch plates if my 2001 yz250F if it has a stock clutch ?
What torque wrench did you use ?
Are you posting this for Tomac's team?
My thoughts exactly! Lol
@@jimbo4203 I thought tomac rode a Rekluse?
So would this be the same method for a yz85 I'm trying too figure it out so I can install my new clutch set so I can sell it
Me too man
WHY NO OIL
Wait, is that a hydraulic clutch?
Wait dude that’s 100% wrong!! The steel plates always are tge first in and last on top , all of it marinated in motorex ktm juice , than tork the fuk out if those bolts , if you really wanna spend more time being a ding dong .
Oh but what about that hydrolic lever thing , I’m gonna go with blue tooth . Since bike doesn’t run I signs listen to music before I’m start cutting down ancient grown forests since we’re on the topic of common sense , anywho gotta skiddadle me and the pals are gonna go see that Barbie movie . My fire breathing dragon won’t be my ktm tonight 😵💫
Great video no bs straight to the point
