Nice promo man. Are you paid?

Great straight forward video. Two additional tips- video tape yourself removing the plates or take pictures of each step to make sure your new plates are going on the same direction and order as the old ones were. It only takes a minute extra and will save you a lot of frustration when the dog comes in and bumps into your nicely laid out removed plates...Also, loosen (and re-tighten) the spring bolts in a "star" pattern to avoid warp.

Been watching a lot of these vids from the MC garage, and I must say they are the best how to videos out there. Simple, Short and straight to the point. Fair play lads, keep up the good work. Thanks from Ireland.

Honestly one of the best and to the point videos I’ve seen. Thanks man. Getting ready to replace my OEM clutch now. This definitely helped me learn quickly An saves me a lot of money having to deal with a shop doing it.

i love this channel. Ive been working on cars my entire life but its funny, theres no real classes or anything on fixing up old bikes. but your channel is soooo useful. MC university

Loving all the videos you make Ari. They help alot!! You make things look so easy!

Loving the simplicity of your videos. Thanks!

I'd love to see a how to video on pulling a bike out of long term storage (couple of years). Your content is top notch and so easy to follow. Keep up the great work.

The best videos I have ever seen on the internet, explained perfectly and to the point inspiring confidence in one's self.

I really appreciate your work here fellas

These videos are very handy, and I'm sure have helped a ton of people.

Awesome video, definitely made this repair less scary for the first time diy

Thanks Ari you made this look so easy.

Very efficient video; no waffling on. Good Job

Great video! You make it look super easy to do.

Thank you for the good work on your videos!

Good video, I like how you are starting to get into more complicated jobs

You have an awesome channel there. I am enjoying every video so far.

You're my dad! Super helpful and to the point. Thanks

Love these! Id love to see a video on brake pads at some point! Also way to feature a sweet bike. I test rode the gsx-s1000 at a demo ride and I was hooked on the sound and the way the k5 builds power

Nice 👍🏻 that takes all the confusion away for me , cheers for the video 👌

Nice video there man. Helps me out alot!

best diy channel out there.

I like Mc garage technique and work so carefully and explain all parts how its work

Hey Ari, can you (or did you already) do a video on how to properly adjust your clutch lever and cable, specifically after a clutch replacement?Thanks! I love these videos!

Great and easy understandable video!

Love these videos!!!!

Very helpful thanks dude

wow this actually looks like something i can do myself!!! i'll give it a shot!!

Very handy that you used my bike as the demo. Now I know how to do it if i ever need to change it.

Very simple and helpful... Thanks Bro.. Hope for more videos on service maintenance

Wow what a great video! That looks easy as hell, no worries about doing some extra clutch up wheelies. I can fix it if it creates an issue down the line

110,000 miles on my 2005 CBR 1000RR clutch is still working great! Surprised so many clutches are being replaced!!!!

Few issues with this video. First, you should never remove the clutch springs and bolts one at a time. They should all be loosened at equal intervals until the pressure is off the springs. Taking them out one at a time can damage the pressure plate, springs and bolts. Second issue: There is a specific direction that clutch plates need to be installed in the pack. THEY MUST ALL BE INSTALLED THE SAME DIRECTION. Installing the plates in different directions can cause abnormal wear and heat generation in the clutch pack. The owner manual should always be referenced.

Another thing: Not all clutches require being bathed in oil. Reference your bike’s service manual to find out if your clutch is wet or dry or semi-wet.

I just installed a new clutch kit on a 2012 R6; and a couple of learning experiences. It said in the service manual to drain the coolant and remove the water pump. This was totally not necessary and waste of time on my bike like Ari mentions, so I didn't do it. Also when I put everything back together I found there were markings on the shift linkage and clutch cover where the cable reattaches that need to be lined up and the slack removed from the shaft before doing so. If at all possible, I would highly suggest getting an OEM kit. They seem to perform the best and last the longest, plus they have all markings/part# to match installation instructions in your service manual. Some plates are thicker/thinner than others and need to be installed in the right sequence as they wear faster from engagement. Lastly, don't drive the piss out of a band new clutch for a while so it can break in properly. The friction plates are similar to brake pads in this respect and you don't want to glaze them.

When the OEM gasket cost $10, replace the gasket. Dont be cheap. Do it right the first time around. Not the second time. If you can't afford a 10$ gasket, you probably shouldn't own a motorcycle 🤦‍♂️

Depends on the car. FWD cars are hard because they have transaxles. RWD cars should be pretty straight forward.

very informative video , however would like to learn also should we upgrade our clutches, spring rates what are the benefits of upgrading to a fancy clutch plate ? or stiffer springs.

Awesome video! Thank you very much. Which side does the wave washer seat go on to the motorcycle? I have the same motorcycle, and I’m not sure which way to put the rings back on to the bike. Thanks!

Could you make a video explaining some signs you would notice if your clutch is going out? Absolutely great videos though

Nice guns brah

I see kits that just have outer plates in it. Is it necessary to replace inner plates too? PS: you've got a new sub!

Nice vids ! Thanks. I have a 2005 Suzuki Boulevard M50. I suspect clutch or transmission troubles. Seems to shift into all gears but, when clutch lever is released I get no forward motion and a terrible whining or possibly gnashing noise. Any thoughts ? Also do I need to go thru the clutch to get to the transmission? Would you reccommend a transmission rebuild for a first time DIY project ? I am mechanically inclined but, have never done anything on a bike .

Great videos Ari. Is that the Fixit T handle torque wrench?

Is it the same with a slipper clutch? Nice video btw

Hey, great video! I did install a new clutch into my gsx-r 750 srad 1998. Of course new oil, complete set, even cable, lifter and liver. Unfortunately after like 500km the clutch did slip. I did not open it up the take a look yet, but I have heard that the iron plates has on side a rounded edge and that needs to face against the engine, the rough edge against the clutch cover. I did not hear about it in the video. What do you think about it? Could it cause any issue? Thanks in advance. Br.: R.p.

tq give us more videos.. mcg

Doing this soon on my 2000 zx6r. found replacement clutch packs on Dennis Kirk but one is steel and one is Kevlar. Any suggestions on which to buy or why?

Should you change your oil early after a new clutch instal? Because of break in and fibers etc. Is there a break in Procedure?

Great video. My clutch lever, when pulled, does not go back out. The arrow and dot on clutch cover were lined up. Should I undo the spring on the clutch cover and realign it? There's tension, but it's almost like the cable is too long now. Please help.

Do the friction plates have an order to go in ? Or just as long as the other plates are still in order it’s ok ?

What brand is that torque wrench you used in this video. I'm having a tough time finding one like that.

7 year old comment, but just to leave this here for anyone looking for it like I was; it looks like the brand in the video is FixT t handle torque wrench

Should the steel plates always be replaced as well? My local shop only sells a kit with friction plates, gasket and springs (+15%)

Any kind of multi purpose grease can be applied to the edges of clutch cover before installing it, is that ok or else it may react with engine oil?

is there any chance to mess this up ? and if you do, will you notice it outright or during riding out of a sudden ? great video!

this video makes me want to order my clutch pack and gasket so I have it for later, before the parts become hard to find or extra expensive.. 2012 Kawasaki Ninja 650. I love my bike. 13K miles on it, all me. :)

Just changed the clutch in my 2018 suzuki c90 boulevard, but after I put everything back together I have no pressure in the clutch handle. Is this normal? Do I need to start the bike to get pressure in the handle?

My bike broke to pieces the clutches and the separator and judder spring was gone, the new kit didn't came with them and i installed it without the metal separator and judder spring. It runs good but.... can it be harmful to the bike?

I bought a brand new bike, Suzuki Gixxer 154.9cc. I have problems at cold starting even if only parked for some hours at the office. The bike has like choking sound or dies when i rev it slowly at low rpms but it idles steady and fine when the throttle is not touched.. Only at low rpm's from 1200-1800 it produce choking sound or blotchy sound. I already retuned a/f mixture, Spark plug reading is okay because it has brownish tip means my A/F mixture is fine and no oil fouling. optimum A/F mixture already, i checked air filter, it was clean and new.. I also changed fuel brand already, following manual required gas 91 octane rating above. I can only run my bike smoothly when it warmed up for about 5 minutes free standing and 3 minutes running then it's okay. I already drained fuel tanks before replacing with new clean oil. I even changed oil already and new filter. But my warm up problems wont be solved? all my bikes before dont have this problem. My country is tropical climate. Please somebody help me. after heating up it's okay, but turns bad again after few hours unused. i have to heat up again for another 3-5 minutes at noon before riding home.

Hi Ari, please tell me what happend if we dont soak the friction plates in oil for at least an hour. thank u!

Can u us the old oil like if u have changed it 200 mile be for the clutch went or is the oil shot

Do you need to replace the Pressure Plate and springs with new ones?? And do you need to replace this part called the “primary driven gear set”

In Boxer engines like in the BMW R 1200 GS, I gues this procedure is quite diferente.Can you do a vídeo on the same clutch replacement?
