replacing 2018 clutch basket

[dzhitshard]

I decided to try the Rekluse clutch basket to see if I can eliminate some of the horrid clutch honking and squealing clutch noise I get on my bike. It doesn't seem to be mechanically effecting my bike but I always find myself slowing down and backing off when it happens.

I cannot find any info online about the process nor find an online manual that covers the process.

Does anyone know first hand if the inner clutch cover has to come off to replace the basket on the GG enduros? I bought an inner clutch cover gasket incase.

I have the rekluse instructions but they are generic
I would like to have a things lined up for when I get back home to the bike.
Thank you

The basket can be removed though the outer cover.

Thanks.

When I got home I popped it off and pulled the hub in prep. Then when I was feeling the basket tangs for grooves I ended up pulling the basket half out.

For anyone considering swapping the basket but concerned about the depth of the project I would say it's about a 2 out of 10 difficulty.

It also took all the clutch honking noise that I was experiencing away.

What did the Rekluse basket cost?

Does rekluse use the stock gas gas clutch plates?

I have a Rekluse Core Manual so I cannot say for certain. I am pretty sure the OEM plates work though because the 2018 GP bikes allegedly had the Rekluse cover and basket with the GG stock clutch.

I changed to the core manual because the OEM clutch pack is almost $400 to replace off the fiche and that's twice as much as I can replace the Rekluse plates for.

The first and most important question: did the new basket change anything?

I have a Rekluse basket on order for my 300 EC/19. The clutch was squealing a lot so I decided to take it out. All I found were some heat marks on the steel plates and the two inner friction plates were a bit darker, so definitely suffered from heat.
I put 15/60 Motul V300 (the most expensive I could get) in and I installed the inner friction discs last so they're the first ones now. Test rode it yesterday (85F) and no joy. After just 10 minutes of riding it started to squeal when i feathered the clutch

New kevlar friction discs and steel plates are on the shelf but Rekluse can't deliver the basket and Rekluse Italy who has it in stock refused sending it. So I am waiting and waiting and waiting....

edit: the bsket arrived! Yihaaa! Will install it Saturday :-)
