From your description (ZX7R), I know it's a Kawasaki ninja zx7r.

HOWEVER, without a YEAR, only generalizations can be given, as things change from year to year.

SOURCE: Clutch squeals when disengaging... HELP!

The clutch may have overheated in the past. I had a similar problem at about 1,500 miles because of stop and go traffic in 95 degree weather. The plates heat up and glaze over as they slip. I installed an open clutch cover on the same bike and I am now at 6,000 miles with a non squeeling clutch pack.

Bleed your slave cylinder on the sprocket cover and refill the hydraulic fluid. If you have any leaks you will get air in the system and it will not fully disengage the clutch. As for the 750, they have cable clutches and you just need to adjust the slack of the cable.

SOURCE: kawasaki ninja zx9r clutch problem

On your bike there are two clutch parts that can wear and cause this problem. The broken spring should be replaced but is not causing the problem. Check the bottom of the clutch release shaft #13102. The end of the shaft may be broken, bent or severely worn. The part the shaft engages with is the clutch rod #46102. It could be bent, broken or severely worn. This part is inside the clutch hub. Just remove the five springs and then the outer cover plate and the rod should be accessible.

SOURCE: Yamaha YZ125 Clutch not disengaging

I would be more concerned with the stuck gear than the clutch, but we will start with the clutch.

02ccdb2.gif The push cam may be bent or deformed and the push shaft may be bent. Assuming the ball bearing is in place, the cam and rod are all that can really go wrong. The rod slides out of the left center case. You will need to loosen the springs to get the left side cover back in place. Roll the rod on a flat surface to see if it is bent. I fear a bent shift fork is causing the gearbox to be stuck in third. Fix the clutch and then post a comment to get back to me.

Recently bought a 2004 Daytona 600, when sitting and pull in the clutch and drop into gear, bike tries to take off, can hold it back but wants to walk, where can i find the torque specs for clutch?

Sounds like your clutch is sticking and not completely disengaging. Clutches get gummed up and that is why they stick, causing the bike to walk when put in gear, also cause the gears to grind because the clutch is still spinning the transmission shaft.
  1. First try bleeding hydraulic clutch make sure you have no air in system.
  2. Remove clutch and clean all discs and reinstall.

My boyfriend put a clutch in his bike yesterday the clutch is not disengaging. i was wondering if it could be the master cylinder? please help thanks.

Could have adjusted pressure plate too tight, or uneven. Wet clutches have to be soaked in oil 4 a couple of hours before installing. Try 2 push bike with lever fully in while in 4gear (motor off) this may unstick plates.

Recently purchased a '97 Vulcan 1500 C. Had 11,730 miles on it. After riding about 1,000 miles, the clutch is begining to slip when cold. Seems ok after riding for about an hour. It also clunks, or grinds...

I don't think your clutch is bad, if it doesn't slip when hot. I would be blaming the pull on the lever not enough, or the gears are worn in the tranny. You can adjust the lever and you can try bleeding off the clutch, The engine oil usually cools the clutch, I'm not sure where your filter is, mine is underneath like a car. My tranny clunks and grinds when revving too much, have to wait for the revs to go down before shifting into first. It used to slip on hot days. Hasn't done it but a couple times. I never took out the clutch basket, but it seems fairly easy. If the oil change doesn't do it, and the bleeding of the slave, I would have to dig deeper into complaints about your bike, before I blame the clutch. You might not have to touch it, but you might be looking at something else. Check it out.

My bike wont go into gear it just kicks back out and cuts off engine. I can run it on centre stand but cant drive it,I have noticed that my clutch lever has lost its resistance can i just adjust this...

I'm not femiliar with your bike. But a bike is a bike when it comes to some problems, and yours is not disengaging the clutch. So, if its hydrolic than you need to bleed the air out of ituntil you lever feels solid but with just a littls free play. Same thing if it's a cable. Adjust it all the way tight , so that the clutch fully disengages then back it off until there is alittle free play in the lever. You need to be able to squeeze the clutch with the bike on the stand and have the rear wheel stop turning. Don't ride it any other way or you'll toast your gear box. Not cheap. Happy trails.

MY CLUTCH WONT DISENGAGE, BUT THE CLUTCH ACTUATES AND HAS BEEN ADJUSTED BY THE BOOK MULTIPLE TIMES

You need to adjust it so that it just disengages. The book is a good guide but every bike is a little bit different. If it dosen't completely disengage you will trash your trans quick.

1995 900 sp clutch does not disengage when lever

hi,this may help,it sounds like your clutch plates are stuck together,this is quite common on bikes that have been parked up for a while,mine does it ocasionally,i fix it by getting the bike moving and crash starting it,once you have got it running and moving with the bike in the highest gear you can get it into(you can change up and down the gearbox without the clutch and not do any damage)simply pull the clutch lever in and roll on and off the throttle a couple of times and the clutch should disengage...hope this helps

Clutch wont disengage properly

What kind of oil is in the crankcase? Wet clutches take a sprcial oil, noy motor oil. If oil is correct, Is the cable and release levers fully disengaging the clutch? There is an adjustment for the rod inside the clutcjh hub . That could be short stroking.
