I've had a 315 plus, just sold my 4rt...in favour of a sherco .....sherco clutch works fabulous! you need to really warm up the 315 then got it moving forward, then pop the clutch ...you only need to do this once .when first starting .....masso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_askham Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 change your engine oil regularly and your clutch troubles will end... Do it every 5 ish rides and you will have no bother in my experience.. clutch works ok on both 315 or 4rt after initial start up and warm up procedure followed of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belldane Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Hi I dont own a 315r but find that if I dont ride my bikes for a while the same problems happens. Try starting the bike and let it run for about 10 minutes, pull the clutch lever in a few times while it is warming up then try to engage 2nd gear. Mine works always and after riding for a few minutes it's fine. Belldane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
