Welcome back to the CSC Garage! In this episode, we’ll walk you through the process of changing out the clutch kit in your RX4 adventure motorcycle. Whether you’re a seasoned rider or a DIY enthusiast, this straightforward tutorial will help you get the job done with just a few simple tools.

Tools Needed:

  • 5 mm Allen wrench
  • 10 mm socket
  • Flat Screwdriver
  • Magnet
  • Engine Oil
  • Torque Wrench

Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. Remove the Clutch Cover:
    • Use a 5 mm Allen wrench to take off the clutch cover.
    • Note the reusable gasket or have a replacement ready. ( Replacement Gasket SKU: Z404-106 )
  2. Unscrew the Springs:
    • With a 10 mm socket, remove the screws that hold the springs in place.
    • Take off the plate containing the springs.
  3. Inspect the Components:
    • Observe the clutch kit components:
      • Six metal discs ( Replacement Steels SKU: Z406-124 )
      • Seven friction discs (two outer ones are different) ( Replacement Friction Discs SKU: Z406-123 )
      • Six springs (which we’ll replace) ( Replacement Pressure Plate Springs SKU: Z406-117 )
  4. Disc Removal:
    • Carefully remove the discs one by one, noting their order.
    • The first disc is the outer friction disc.
    • The last friction disc is different and serves as the full inner disc.
  5. Install the New Clutch Kit:
    • Pay attention to the position of the rings and plates.
    • Start with the flat ring, followed by the beveled ring.
    • Install the friction discs and steel plates in the correct order.
    • The outermost friction disc has a unique shade and thinner pads.
    • The last friction plate should be positioned slightly off from the rest.
  6. Assemble the Clutch:
    • Ensure the front plate is seated correctly.
    • Attach the springs and bolts, gradually adding pressure.
    • Torque the bolts to around 10 ft-lbs (aluminum case).
  7. Reattach the Clutch Cover:
    • Place the gasket back in position (if reusable).
    • Tighten the small fasteners (8-10 ft-lbs) using the 5 mm Allen wrench.
  8. Final Checks:
    • Stand the bike upright.
    • Start the engine and let it warm up.
    • Check the oil level and top off if needed.

Enjoy the ride with your newly replaced clutch!
