Sup guys,I just bought a 05 YFZ 450 last saturday and I think it needs a clutch.Everytime I get on it hard it wants to slip so I have to let off of it a little bit.So what kind of clutch setups are you all running in ur alls YFZ's.Any insight on this will be greatly appreciated.Thanks everyone

 

the clutch shouldn't have went that fast...maybe it isn't adjusted right or something. hahah are your back wheels just spining? :-P

 

The factory clutch is actually a very durable clutch... (a lot will say more durable than aftermarket)

If you're looking for a lighter clutch setup for performance reasons... then that's different...

 

First I would check to see the cable is adjusted properly. I agree, the stock clutch seems pretty durable, but that '05 could be 2 1/2 years old. It is conceivable it is time to replace it. Again, nothing wrong with the stock parts going back in. I have also had good luck with Barnett clutches on other motors(still stock on my '05 YFZ though.) If you don't mind spending the $$ then a Hinson clutch basket would be a nice addition. More so if the stocker is shot, which it shouldn't be.

 

haha wow i totally missed that '05' part, lol

 

Well I think im gunna order a Barrnet clutch K-series Kevlar from my yamaha dealer.I think that clutch will hook up quite well for the power my motor is produceing
