  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Hi,
So here's my scenario, any help would be appreciated.

Its a 2014/13 CR125, and as I was stripping it down for a good clean and lube, I was attempting to reconnect the clutch cable by holding the piece that connects the clutch cable to the lower-end, with a pair of pliers and I guess I put too much counter-clock wise pressure on it and it went past where it should have stopped. Okay, so I attempted to turn it clock wise to get to where I needs to be, and then attached the clutch cable. It starts and engages in all gears, but I seems to be lacking power, the hit is gone.

I haven't split cases before so I can't really visualize what I jacked up, and what needs to happen to get the power back.

My feeling is that the clutch isn't releasing all the way, almost as if I was riding with the clutch pulled in a little. Not sure if that's even possible.

Any insight?
 
Does the bike still Rev like the power has kicked in just doesn't pull as hard? Or does it no long sound like it's teaching the power band and revs stay flat?
 
creamsodauk,
It revs up and sounds as it did prior my meddling, it just doesn't pull or have the hit. Shifts fine too.

:confused:

Go to page 38. It will be number 12. Take off your clutch cover and check your clutch. Be sure to drain the oil first. You wont have to split the cases.

Yep, #12 is what I was trying to describe.

I pulled the clutch out, and pulled that #12 part out and I could could see a small scratch where I forced it to rotate past the little notch that #11 seats in.

I put everything back together, and got the cable adjusted, gonna have to wait for tomorrow before I can test ride. Fingers crossed, its open practice at Budds Creek this weekend!
 
You should be good with what you did. You had just turned the arm past its pivot point so it was partially stuck holding the clutch in.
 
Just to close the loop in case someone else goes all bull and china shop on their clutch assembly like myself; rancher1's respond sums it up; she's fixed! Thanks.
 
thanks for posting the solution in case another person finds themselves in the same situation. glad you got it sorted
