Welcome back to the CSC Garage! In this episode, we’ll walk you through the process of changing out the clutch kit in your RX4 adventure motorcycle. Whether you’re a seasoned rider or a DIY enthusiast, this straightforward tutorial will help you get the job done with just a few simple tools.

Tools Needed:

• 5 mm Allen wrench
• 10 mm socket
• Flat Screwdriver
• Magnet
• Engine Oil
• Torque Wrench

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Remove the Clutch Cover:
• Use a 5 mm Allen wrench to take off the clutch cover.
• Note the reusable gasket or have a replacement ready. (Replacement Gasket SKU: Z404-106)
2. Unscrew the Springs:
• With a 10 mm socket, remove the screws that hold the springs in place.
• Take off the plate containing the springs.
3. Inspect the Components:
• Observe the clutch kit components:
• Six metal discs (Replacement Steels SKU: Z406-124)
• Seven friction discs (two outer ones are different) (Replacement Friction Discs SKU: Z406-123)
• Six springs (which we’ll replace) (Replacement Pressure Plate Springs SKU: Z406-117)
4. Disc Removal:
• Carefully remove the discs one by one, noting their order.
• The first disc is the outer friction disc.
• The last friction disc is different and serves as the full inner disc.
5. Install the New Clutch Kit:
• Pay attention to the position of the rings and plates.
• Start with the flat ring, followed by the beveled ring.
• Install the friction discs and steel plates in the correct order.
• The outermost friction disc has a unique shade and thinner pads.
• The last friction plate should be positioned slightly off from the rest.
6. Assemble the Clutch:
• Ensure the front plate is seated correctly.
• Attach the springs and bolts, gradually adding pressure.
• Torque the bolts to around 10 ft-lbs (aluminum case).
7. Reattach the Clutch Cover:
• Place the gasket back in position (if reusable).
• Tighten the small fasteners (8-10 ft-lbs) using the 5 mm Allen wrench.
8. Final Checks:
• Stand the bike upright.
• Start the engine and let it warm up.
• Check the oil level and top off if needed.

Enjoy the ride with your newly replaced clutch!
