Hi I was checking the user manual for my

The clutch is working fine now. I went for a ride today, trying all the tricks described above and after a few km.(quite a few actually) the clutch broke loose. The clutch worked fine the rest of the ride. I could not find a Silkolene dealer nearby so I went with IPone

In my case, no, cold engine

The oil plug is out. After trying two different Vise-Grips, several Pliers, chisel/hammer and several more things I welded a nut to the oil plug. Pretty brutal approach. The trick to avoid heating the aluminum cases was to weld for only a second at a time and cool in between with water. There was almost no heat transfer to the cases so I don

Thanks guys, I will check the clutch linkage lever and the clutch master cylinder. The first thing I did was to check the movement of the clutch linkage lever. All looked fine, but then again this bike is new to me. I don

I changed the oil on my

Hi I wanted to change the oil on my new-to-me SY250. To my delight the head of the oil plug had been stripped

Guys, thanks for the answers. Sorry not to be clear on this, the clutch was fully disengaged. As I said I think the clutch plates are binding together since the arm on the engine that operates the clutch push rod is moving when I pull in the clutch lever. Yesterday I put the bike in 3rd gear and went on and off the throttle holding the clutch lever in. That did not help, but I only tried for a few minutes and the engine was not fully warmed up. I will try what you advice before opening up the clutch. Is it common, having to take the clutch apart and physically pry the plates apart on the SY250?

Hi. I am new to trials, thanks for this great site. Yesterday I bought myself a 2006 scorpa SY 250. I rode it for the first time today (just up and down the road for a few minutes). The clutch would not release!! The bike has not been used much for the last year. I suspect the clutch plates are sticking together, just like in some of the older Yamaha XT enduro models when they had not been used for a few weeks. I tried putting the bike in 3-rd gear and giving it gas but that did not help. What can I do? Should I simply tear into the clutch and manually free up the disks?
