So I got my new clutch...HELP!!!

Everything went together just fine. I also adjusted it exactly like two bros says to do it. But now when I let it idle in gear it will be pretty well engaged to the point that if I'm not rolling it will stall after about ten sec. I've tried adjusting it either way and nothing will let it stay idling in gear. anyone else have this? maybe a fix for it? I'm stumped and my only real stunt time is fri and sat.... I don't want to have to wait till next week!!!

Maybe try turning your idle up? Maybe the new clutch is so stiff, that your old idle isn't high enough to keep the bike running


Also do you have lots of oil? Maybe it hasen't gotten oil all the way through it

I'm gonna double check oil today. As for idle, I had to turn it down so hopefully the clutch would disengage. I can just ride (Not very fast) around the lot with no throttle...

try turning your idle down a bit, i have mine set pretty low becase the stock idle setting made my bike roll at idle too
