GG Clutch basket photos

[chucky]

I understand and saw the pictures of the new basket with the webbing between the fingers , but what I dont understand and perhaps someone can shed some light on this is how does the oil reach the clutch plates when it is spinning , I mean how will it improve oil flow without the webbing , I would imagine it would be better to add more holes on the inner hub .

No one wants to hear this, but the ONLY time my clutch has squacked has been when I have been in way too high of a gear. Once I shifted into the correct gear, I have never heard the noise.

I am not the least bit concerned about this so called issue. If you want to hear clutch noise, ride a pre-09 Husaberg. They squeal like a pig if you arent in the right gear.

So now the fix is that you have to ride them the way someone else thinks?

I find it more than a little troubling that the dealers on here say it is fine but the customers have an issue with it. And at the end of the day the dealers say buy a different bike...they all do it...Bullcrap.

My 01 doesn't do it no matter how much I chug it. The torque of the GasGas is the reason you can ride a gear high, and it is negated by a terrible sounding squeal if you try. Now I can't ride it like that because someone says you aren't riding the bike the way they set it up?? GasGas needs to fix this. Clay said a long time ago they would look into it.

All that I have seen done is that threads get closed down and the posters get humiliated because they want there bike to perform like many others they have had...CRAZY.

Hi All

My clutch chiprs under hard use, is this a normal thing with GasGas clutches? The plates are well within spec, it only happens on big hills in deep mud etc

[AZRickD]

Typical. Mine requires lots of abuse and odd oils to do that, though. More of a grunt than a chirp.

Round 3 or 4.

I don't want to get off the single track here, but this topic has been beat down!!!

There is an ongoing thread on the clutch issue.........

There is a "sticky" in the 2 stroke section...................

And................the search function works great- key word(s) "clutch noise"

http://www.gasgasrider.org/forum/sea...d=213576&pp=25

I do not want to over step myself here, but if users would use the search function more often, they just might find more info than they really need!

Thanks

My 2010 300 use to do it sometime but I don't think I've heard it since I swiched to Amsoil. On the noise: It's normal for some, doesn't hurt a thing, some do, some don't, don't worry to much about it they are great clutches. Try the Amsoil if you like and see if it works for you too.

There are already three hole found grouped evenly around the inner clutch basket in six locations (see photo above)

my clutch hub has 6 holes total...was this a modification/update of newer models??

[Madhead]

is there anything I can do wrong when changing clutch plates that can cause the squealing??
My friends 2010 EC 300 Racing has never squealed before. Now after 2 years we change the clutch, and now it makes those noises!! We didn't even remove the basket just the kork and steel plates.
