How motorcycle clutch works

[ZeePopo]

Found this great 3d animation video on how a motorcycle clutch works. The animation sure make it easier to understand how all the parts work together.

I am a little less dumm each time I come to this site. Thanks! Great stuff.

"My pressure plate's burnin' that machine's too much."

So this is what the Beach Boys were talking about. I never knew but always wondered.

What in this surprised me, the uninitiated: The small amount of total clutch movement generated by what looks like a cam mechanism, and the understanding of why only a small movement is required.

Great vids Zeepopo for those that want a better understanding of things.
Presented very well. Grafx these days are awesome. My junior highschool shop teacher "learned us" the stuff in those vids by drawing on a chalkboard and yelling at us.

If you want I can call you and yell at you while you watch the video. They say the old ways work best lol.

WOW, I will have to watch the transmission one a few more times before I start to get it.

If you respond better to reading and diagrams, this is a clutch tutorial I wrote a few years ago. The intro is generic but the actual tutorial on removing clutch plates is specific to the Gen1 ZX-14.

I see girls like that just about everyday at the shop....while I daydream instead of doing my work.
I would hire all 3 of them...even if I had to work overtime to fix all the shi7 they broke.
