This guy has got all the snap-on goodies! Thank you for the help partzilla!

this video saved my clutches!!! I didn't offset the last friction disc before installing the pressure plate. I only ran it like that for about 25 seconds in neutral then had it in first with the church in for about 10 seconds. Will that 1 friction disc be ok? i hope it will be. If I can't use that last disc after I correct it please let me know. thanks you

We sincerely appreciate your videos as they are a huge help; however: you always seem to neglect to mention the torque spec's for each bolt or nut. Also, whether to use blue or red lock-tight or in the case of cylinder or cylinder head studs we should apply a small amount of oil to the threads. Thank you for your time and commitment to helping all of us d.i.y. guys trying to save money and stay out on the tracks and trails.

“Once the ool is out of the machine”

your videos have been a big help! I recently put a new clutch on my 400 and this video helped me. I got it together and the clutch was working great shortly after I put a timing chain on. Just reinstalled the clutch after installing chain and now it is not engaging. took it apart and put it back together a few times to see if that makes any difference and it has not. My springs are fine. Clutch disk are in right. Lever feels like it’s engaging but the clutch just isn’t working right. Any idea whats going on?

Can you explain the disc for the clutch like witch one goes first and the ending ones

Thank you!

I've had to adjust my clutch a lot.It doesn't engage until my clutch lever is at least 7/8 of the way in.Do I hav to get a new clutch ?

Can you do a timing chain replacement

Hello! I was changing my clutch but when I removed the cover the reverse lever inside came off, is there any idea on how to put it back?

OMG, when I was taking the cover off the "reverse spindle", (I don't know its proper name) came out. It's the metal spindle located below and on the lower left of the clutch pack. The reverse cable connects to it. How do this go back in?

I just replaced the clutch basket in my 2000 honda 400ex and if I pull in the clutch and put it in first it takes off like the clutch isn’t disengaging could it be because the last fiber plate isn’t offset?

It's not as easy at the guy does it but trust me just work through it you got it 👍👍

getting ready to do a replacement was wondering if there was a certain ftlbs the springs require thank you!

+Cody Simmons The Honda Service manual does not specify a torque amount specifically for those bolts. They do have a generic torque table based on the type of bolt. In this case those five bolts are 6mm flange bolt with a 10mm Head and call for a torque of 9 ft-lbs. Good luck on your project!

I have a problem with the neutral light on my 2000 400ex the previous owner said he changed the clutch cable and the neutral light just blinks and I have to be moving the clutch pedal so the light turns on.

I just replaced the clutch plates in my 2001 400ex. it was starting to slip in high gear when I would romp on it. when I tore into it I noticed the last friction disk was not offset one notch like you mentioned in the video. could this be the cause of the slippage? what is the reasoning for having the last friction plate offset from the others?

@PartzillaParts

+Nate Fuller That should have not cause the slippage. The plate is offset is done to help reduce “judder” during clutch engagement. The last plate is the first to engage.

What was the symptoms that lead you to replacing the clutch? I have the same atv, 07 400ex, and gears don't engage (click) until I'm about 3/4 out of the clutch. That's not a clutch issue correct?

@PartzillaParts

Instead of lining up the last disc with the others, you move it over one notch. If you look closely on the video, you will see how it goes. The spring bolts don't have a torque spec. Just tighten to stop and snug them. Don't tighten them too much because they can snap. Cover bolts are 8 ftlbs. No change on 2008.

Ok thanks

Also how much movement should the lever on the clutch case have when you pull the clutch in?

You can always follow the video and inspect your clutch. If you had low oil for a duration of time, you will see scorching on the plates. Otherwise, you will be able to see noticeable wear if the clutch is bad. Just pull the discs out and check them out. If it needs replacing, you can order a clutch pack and get it done.

Valves can be bad without showing a bunch of symptoms. Ask him why he thinks the valves are bad. Ticking, backfiring are common symptoms. For the clutch, when it's running, put it in gear, see where it engages and hold the front brake while easing the clutch out. If the clutch slips before the bike stalls, then it has problems. Just a couple things to give it a once over.

Harrison, if it's leaking at the clutch cover, it's possible that it wasn't cleaned well enough to get the old gasket off, the gasket got pinched or it wasn't torqued down right. Those bolts should be torqued to 9ft lbs. You may have to pull it off and see where it's leaking and redo the gasket. If you want the cheap fix, get some high temp RTV and seal the area that's leaking.
