What Causes Gear Sticking in Motorcycles?
1 Answers
Motorcycle gear sticking during shifting is caused by incomplete clutch disengagement, which can be resolved by adjusting the clutch. Cleaning the clutch: When oil stains or rust are present on the clutch friction plates, driving plates, or pressure plates, they should be disassembled for removal of contaminants or rust, cleaned thoroughly with gasoline or kerosene, dried, and then reinstalled. Applying appropriate grease: After cleaning or replacing the clutch bearing, apply an appropriate amount of grease, ensuring the side with the dust cover faces the clutch. Incorrect installation must be avoided to prevent oil contamination from entering the clutch, which could cause clutch slippage. Regular adjustment: Regularly adjust the clutch operating mechanism, remove any dirt, tighten all connecting bolts, and lubricate the clutch pedal shaft as specified.
