I put my front sprocket cover back on and like a dummy I over tightened the adjustment screw before realizing that spec was til you feel tension and back out a hair. Now the actuator arm makes contact with the sprocket cover before it reaches the push rod. Am I missing something on...

I replaced the clutch plates yesterday. Even with only 18k kms, I was convinced the clutch was worn because 1) the rpms would increase but pulling power wasn't there; and 2) I was having a bitch of a time shifting from 2nd to 3rd. My shifter was constantly sticking unless I was < 5k rpm. After...

I would have said it happens intermittently, but on my commute today it stuck EVERY time switching between 2nd and 3rd when over 8k+ rpm. Lower rpm and I think it shifts fine. More to investigate. I'm totally off the throttle, oil is fresh last month, chain tension is in spec (if that matters)...

I have a 2008 suzuki gsxr 1000 motorcycle. I just replaced the clutch master, clutch line, clutch cylinder and slave, clutch rods, clutch plates. I cannot get the clutch to disengage. If I try to start it with the motorcycle in gear, it lunges forward. Even with lever pulled in. When on the...

I am looking for a kit to convert my cable actuated clutch to a hydraulic actuated clutch. Any recommendations? Thanks

The bike is a 2008 GSXR 600 Riding style is mostly calm, daily commuting, and rev-matched shift changes. no clutch ups or drag racing. I did reduce the gearing, -1 front +5 rear. Perhaps that is a factor. Oil changes with Valvoline synthetic motorcycle oil every 4-5k miles. The issue I'm having...

I recently had a new motor installed on my K4 GSXR-600. After the new engine was installed, I would get on the throttle hard and the engine speed would not match the bike speed in higher rpm’s. I called the shop that installed the engine for me and they said it probably needs a new clutch. I...

Hi everybody bike has been blown up for about two years and I recently put it back together freshly rebuilt slave cylinder just because I had a rebuild kit in the pack and decided to use it so that’s fresh and holds pressure doesn’t leak and I’m satisfied with that as well as I also had a...

I am planning to put a GSXR600 into a small Formula car. I am allowed to use a basically bone stock engine between 2003 and 2019. What are the significant differences thru the years? Engine, Clutch and Transmission? Thanks for your expertise!!

I've been trying to find a rebuild kit for my clutch master but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Unless it's the same as some other bikes? I desperately need because this fluid is getting all over my fairings and I'm tired of either replacing them or repainting them.. Anyone have any idea where...

Hi everyone. As you all know I'm new to the forum and I would like to post a little review of the limited time I've had with the bike so far. A little about me. I've been riding for about 15 years now. But haven't been to the racetrack yet (planning on that within the next 6 months). I also...

Hi guys want some help please while I'm riding and I give it some throttle the revs go up suddenly and when it stops the I feel the bike pul again is this the clutch slipping, time for a new clutch It's an k7 750 it's has 20 thousand miles on

So I have a K5 1000, and the clutch started slipping on it. It has very low miles so after doing some digging around I adjusted the cable at the perch and released some tension and it helped with the slip a lot. I figured it was slipping because the clutch wasn’t fully disengaging because of...

Hoping for some advice - I have a 2001 GSXR 600 K1 - I have recently topped up the oil with Castrol Power 1 racing 10W 40 4T oil, and since then when I reach around 12000 rpm, it seems as though the clutch is slipping as the engine noise increases, but lack of power. Gear changes are smooth...

Does anyone have a set of clutch plates they prefer to use? I tried to order Schnitz but they're on back order after waiting 3 weeks. So, I'm looking for some other opinions. I have a K8 1000. Thanks in advance!!

Hi everyone, Another GSX-R 600 K7 owner here and another clutch push rod seal leaking. Have researched this topic a little and looks like there is a lot of controversion going on about this whether you need to separate the engine casing. Let me leave my 5 cents and hopefully my case will...
