  • Clutch problem?

    So i'm doing burnouts in my neighborhood on my 05 Kat 600, and as i go to take off.. i have to rev to 10000 rpm to even get the bike going with the clutch let loose. I think i burned it out. any suggestions on where to get a new one from? Gotta get this fixed today or tomorrow since i totalled my car on saturday and have no other vehicle..

    Wrecked your car and now you wrecked your bike, huh. Clutches are not cheap. Expect to pay a least $100 for a new set of fibers and steel plates. You maybe able to find some used ones on ebay but they maybe just like yours so be aware.

        clutches aren't cheap, and you probably should take it easy on ur bike, esp since you already wrecked your car.
        anyway, since u gotta have it done asap, get it from the dealer, they'll have it in stock or have in a day or two. if you get for online, you'll have to wait 3-7 days probably.

            Please post pics of the abused parts when you get them out, the metal plates will be interesting.

            By the way, how old are you anyway? Generally anyone over 25 knows that all you are doing is making yourself look like an ***. Have fun replacing the rear tire too. 5 minutes of fun - $500 of damage. Lucky you didn't hook up and break your neck.

                First try adjusting it and see if it helps anything. Maybe you'll have enough stack height left to at least make it ok to commute with until the clutch comes in. It's a good bet that you'll be replacing that clutch though.

                Also, if you managed to burn your clutch up doing burnouts, then you were doing them all wrong anyway.

                      That's not a how to on it. It's easy. I'd tell you to go download the service manual, but the wiki is still sitting on the old hosts server.
