Smooth gear change at last!

  1. I've finally managed to get my gearbox to work smoothly, I was getting really fed up with the stupidly clunky gear change on my bike so decided to have a look inside the clutch to hopefully find out what the problem was.
  2. If you look at the clutch you can see the oil holes at about the 4 o'clock position. I drilled the additional holes every second tooth, one near the base and one near the middle.
  3. I've only covered about 600 miles so far but the difference is amazing.

  1. Same here, but for me I fixed it by removing all the burring on the clutch basket fingers with a small fine file.
  2. Thats a problem I have had with this fazer since I bought it and I also believe the squealing noise I get if I vigorously slip the clutch. I always did wonder how I could get more oil onto the dryer plates - nice find mister. Next oil change I am going to do this.
  3. You should also make sure the drive chains has no more than 35-40mm (the manual says 45mm, but I found the tighter setting better) of slack at its tightest point - this also makes the gear-change smoother.
  4. And lastly you should check the free-play on your gear lever
