My first GasGas importer told me that the reason that clutch drag was a bigger problem in our bikes was that there was very little free play in the clutch pack. In effect, "The tolerances are tighter in the GasGas clutch pack." The thinner thrust washer would help with that, by adding 1 mm to the free play.

BUT it sounds good on paper for me. In fact, according to calculations, everything should work out. In reality, i made spacer 1.5 mm, BUT nut pressed the hub so much, that it became one with the basket, and there can be no talk of clutch work. It looks like I need a 1.7mm spacer, BUT will the clutch pack fit? |

Hi all. Looking at doing this conversion. From what I have read there are different ways of doing it. I've got a 15 ec250. What's the easiest way of doing it? Also does that stack height actually make that much difference. As I would have thought the slave cylinder would take the slack up?

I accomplished this using the stock GG clutch components. To accomplish this I did three things: 1. Made sure that the clutch hydraulics were completely bled of any air. 2. Made sure that the clutch master cylinder's actuation pin was not adjusted in to far and pushing the piston too far into the master cylinder. (this won't let the master cylinder self-bleed air while it's being used, causing problems.) 3. Started using 50ccc more oil than the factory recommends (1100cc on the '97-2000 models, and 1000cc on the 2001 and later models), and using Amsoil 0w40 synthetic Formula 4-Stroke Powersports Engine Oil in my transmissions. When I was doing research for Rekluse, using their first generation auto clutch, i sometimes started my bike in gear without knowing it until I blipped the throttle. That led to some "picturesque" and very humorous to watch starting events. This is some seriously good oil for your clutch and transmission. Plus, it stays pretty a lot longer than most other brands that I've tried. https://www.amsoil.com/shop/by-produ...?code=AFFQT-EA I hope this helped a bit.

Thank you very much. You have helped. I might just put a stock clutch back into it. Don't want to be messing about with it to much

Alright, I'm trying to go the opposite direction of most people in this thread. My 2011 ec300 had a rekluse core exp 1.0 on it when I bought it. I've been riding trials a lot lately and want to go back to a manual clutch on the gasser.
I have the rekluse basket, inner hub and pressure plate. I also have a gasgas pressure plate, but not the hub or basket. One idea I had was to just take out the exp disk and put in new friction and steel plates. I talked to rekluse and they said I could do that, but I'd need to buy the core manual pressure plate, but that's $200 plus the cost of the steels and frictions. I'm not sure I'd actually need the pressure plate, as I could just adjust the core pressure plate. I'd still need to replace the steel and friction plates. Do these have to be from rekluse or could I use cr250 plates? The second option would be to source the OEM parts and replace them, but that might be tough. So, if I buy the entire setup for a cr250, would it be a drop in replacement? In summary, here are my questions: Can I use cr250 plates in the rekluse basket and hub? Can I use the rekluse basket and hub with no exp plate, but more other plates? Could I just drop in the entire cr250 clutch assembly (basket, hub, plates, etc)? |

I bought cr250 friction plates and tried to install them without the exp plate. The pressure plate is way too tall to use without the exp plate, so that idea is out. I may just have to buy the core manual plate for $200. If I do that though, I'm worried the cr250 plates will be too thick to use that setup as is, and I'll probably need to get creative with some washers in there. On the other hand, I could maybe just buy the stock setup and go back to that, but my real goal here is to have a manual clutch with good feel that I can reliably find parts for longterm. Any input is appreciated. |

If you can't find the OEM GasGas plates, the Moose Racing steel and fiber plates look just like the 2006 OEM GasGas pieces. I believe that DunlopPad (Tony Mills Racing in the UK) made the plates for Moose, and maybe the OEM plates for GasGas during that time period.
