hey, i was out riding and it fealt like my clutch cable snapped, well it was still connected and was still pulling the lever in down on the case, it was not pulling the clutch in for some reason, what is wrong, oh and everything seemed to be overly hot. i got the side case off, i need help i dont see anything wrong, it still has power and still runs and is very driveable.

Broken clutch puller pin thing, theyre like 7 bucks. Its pretty easy to replace, remove the clutch and put a new one in, thats it.

hey i have been thinking about my problem i have here, how did this happen? what causes this pin to break? does it happen often, is it a problem with the 400's?

Posted by: Bill Fuller

Yes it is a common problem.No it isn't anything to worry about.I ran a '99 426 for 2 seasons and it never happend.I ran a 2000 416 and it happend on the 2nd year of racing.I don't think it is an epidemic just a part that gets pulled on alot and just wears.

i do alot of slo motion wheelies and i grab my clutch around 100 tims per wheelie, i do over 100 wheelies a day, if i put more play in my clutch will it be less likely to happen, or should i stop doing wheelies so much

why do you pull the clutch in?... why dont ya jus tap the rear brake?

Posted by: 660r2a400ex

because u stall out more also u cant make a complete stop doing a wheelie if u dont use the clutch, i can stop completely and hold the bike up in the same spot for around 10-20 seconds!!! i use my clutch a lot

cool i can wheelie like a mofo to but i just use the brake ill have to work on this
