Once you install your new clutch, it is important to break it in.
A series of roll-on starts are used to break in the clutch.
Follow these procedures for breaking in your clutch and any
time new friction disks, EXP bases, Teflon pads, or wedges
are installed.
Failure to follow the break-in procedure could cause
motor oil delivery failure, which can result in motor
failure, serious injury, or death.
Break-in Procedure

1. Warm up the vehicle for 2-3
minutes. With the vehicle in
NEUTRAL

off
of
the clutch lever, rev the engine
10 times, being sure to let it
return to idle
between each rev
cycle.
2. With the engine still running,
pull in the clutch lever, then shift
