Excellent vid. Helped me out tremendously. I had almost exactly the same issue. With the addition of previous owner dropping a small ball bearing in between the pushrod and mushroom to take up the wear!!! Some people should not be allowed near tools!

Fantastic video quality and editing! The audio is clear, the pacing is perfect, visuals flow - very nice!

Well it looks like my sr400 is suffering the same issue. So as the engine is drained anyway it looks like I should inspect the clutch and the pushrod. Thanks for the excellent video

Thanks. - pulled the actuator out and scored just like yours and the adjuster cam so well worn. Will pop the clutch out next week and inspect the rod but assuming that’s going to need looking at also.

Beware the bottom engine bolt and the swinging arm spindle corroding themselves in. Remove and lubricate occasionally.

Good vid. Iv been having oil leak from that seal on pivot arm - it occasionally lifts up allowing oil out. Ya reckon a new spring will solve it?

@oneupmotogarage

My thought would be the seal that sits just under the spring. You can use a generic oil seal of this size: 17x28x6 or search via the OEM part # 93102-17148 or 93102-17357 Hope that helps, good luck!

@@pmacc3557 You can see what that does, but it won't likely stop an oil leak from that seal unless your clutch pivot arm is really worn in one spot. That's possible depending on the mileage. You could adjust it to a new spot (raise or lower it a little) and then get the clutch play feeling right again using the other adjuster (at the lever).

@@oneupmotogarage OK, you're right, I went back and looked it up, the 125 was a 2 stroke, had an oil pump. I was only in the 8th grade back then and fell in love with motorcycles. The kid that lived next door to me had an old Honda 100 street/dirt bike and he and I would ride that thing all over the base housing and on the dirt roads of Kansas. Couldn't get lost, the whole county back roads are 1 mile by 1 mile, just make a big square. We had a blast till the motor seized one day and that was the end of that. By that time, my dad retired and we moved to Louisiana. Didn't ride a bike again till I was in college, then it was my buddy's Honda 350 while my trans am was getting repaired in the shop from someone hitting me. Everyone's xmas gift that year was small, no room other than my pockets to shop in. Had to put the bike down one time when I had a lady pull out in front of me and I also learned real quick to watch out for grooved roads on the interstate. uggg

Ha! Yes the threat is real!

I have the same bike. The part that the throttle cables connect to (trying to run new ones) is not moving as if it’s locked. Any suggestions as to what would be causing that or fixing it??

@oneupmotogarage

4 ай бұрын

Are you running the push and pull cables on a stock carb? Could you have them ran backwards? That will make it feel locked. Also if you haven't cleaned the carb recently maybe some old sticky gas is making the slide stick. Or the pumper linkages can get seized sometimes which will make the throttle not able to move.

@oneupmotogarage

If you are running both cables, I would suggest removing the push cable and only using the pull. It's way easier to setup, adjust and get a snappy throttle that way.

Video is great and channel is solid my dude, but SR500 are all crap bikes. I have had 4 now with this exact issue. They were a terrible design by Yamaha, only God knows why people even want this junk still considering what is now available.

Interesting, I've had several and this was the first one I had this issue with. But it does seem to have been a fairly common issue with them from what I hear. Overall though I like them. I just had one of the fuel injected remakes in the shop and it was pretty neat to ride.
