BREAK IN THE NEW CLUTCH
Once you install your new clutch, it is important to break it in. A
series of roll-on starts are used to break in the clutch. Follow
these procedures for breaking in your clutch and any time new
friction disks, EXP bases, Teflon pads, or wedges are installed.
Failure to follow the break-in procedure and oil screen
inspection process could cause motor oil delivery failure,
which can result in motor failure, serious injury, or death.
Break-in Procedure
1. Warm up the bike for 2-3 minutes.
With the bike in NEUTRAL and
your hand off of the clutch lever,
rev the engine 10 times, being sure
to let it return to idle between
each rev cycle.
2. With the engine still running, pull in
the clutch lever, then shift the bike
st
into 1
gear. Slowly release the
clutch lever. The bike should stay
running and in place, or have a
slight amount of forward creep.
3. With the bike idling in first gear,
slowly apply throttle to begin
moving.
4. Without using the clutch lever,
accelerate moderately to
approximately 3,500 RPM to fully
lock up the clutch and come to a
complete stop. Repeat 15 times.
