There are a lot of components that make up a clutch and we want to show you how to replace and properly lube your clutch cable. We demonstrate what to look for and how to inspect the Clutch Cable. If you are experiencing some resistance in your clutch pull or feel that it is dragging and hard to pull, it's most likely your clutch cable needs serviced or replaced. Overtime they wear out and simply need replacing. Get all your Clutch replacement parts at www.rockymountainatvmc.com .

    I have adjusted the cable on my vintage 1971 Kawasaki Trail Boss 100 (3300 original miles) but it still doesn't disengage the clutch when putting it in gear? Your video mentioned other parts that might need replacing? Any guesses as to my problem? Thanks!

    Do you have to lube it? I don't have oil for that wd40 works for that or not?

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  6 лет назад

      Lubing your cables is good practice and can prolong the life and sliding action. Check out our cable lubes we sell here: www.rockymountainatvmc.com/Sales/834/How-To-Replace-A-Dirt-Bike-Clutch-Cable . I would recommend you pick up some. It's not very expensive.

    My clutch cable snapped a few days ago, I’m waiting on a new one but when I pull in the where the clutch cable attaches to it doesn’t actually engage the clutch. Should I be concerned?

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  2 года назад

      Are you talking about the actuating arm that's on the engine? If the clutch worked before the cable broke, it should work again as soon as you get the new cable on. ruclips.net/video/9s8FqEBONlk/видео.html -Charles

      @LukeTheMasterOfNothing 2 года назад

      I would assume you have springs installed in the clutch basket, so maybe your rod isn't in correctly or have no rod at all?

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  7 месяцев назад +1

      Adjusting the clutch side first allows you to make bigger adjustments so that you can do your fine tuning on the lever side to get the correct free play and to make future adjustments when components wear.

      It controls the engagement of the clutch without leaking fluid or air bubbles impacting it.
