Hi,
Recently I inspected the clutch on my 2011 Te310, with app 350-400 hours, due to the feeling on the lever, that the clutch is worn out. With the smallest pressure on the lever, the clutch dissengages already, but I did not notice the slippage.
I measured the plate thickness: total set 28,95 mm (separate friction plate 0,95mm) and springs: 36,75 mm
Limits are 0,9 mm of one plate and 35 mm springs, so everything is still in specifications allowed.
Pressure plate looks somewhat strange, but I do not know, if this is standard (see below or attached). It shows some cracks like structures in the material.
My question, is the pressure plate ok, as it is, or is better to exchange it?
What about the feeling on the lever, why it engages so fast? I would like to have more free play, to have fingers close to handlebar. The reach is set at the minimum distance already. The oil level is correct. Is the thickness of the friction plates the only parameter that effects where the clutch will dissengage?
Thanks for any suggestion.
Kind regards,
Alex
