December 23, 20169 yr Recently picked up a Rev 3, clutch master was leaking so rebuilt that and reverse bled with a syringe. Clutch does stick a bit when cold, rocking it back and forth frees it off. If I start the bike in first with the clutch in, it starts fine and I can then ride away normally If I start the bike in neutral and then put it into first, it stalls before I've had a chance to release the clutch - as if I haven't actually got the clutch pulled in at all. Riding normally I can change gear fine, and if I pull the clutch in and leave the bike in gear it doesn't stall when I come to a stop. Any ideas?
December 23, 20169 yr There is a fix pinned to top of Beta forum that explains how to clean (file out) glue between raised surfaces of friction plates; allowing better access to oil flow between clutch plates and helps resolve the problem you are describing. Here is link: http://www.trialscentral.com/forums/topic/28407-the-beta-clutch-fix/
December 23, 20169 yr Beta and many bikes do this when cold. Not a big deal, but always point the bike in a clear direction.
December 24, 20169 yr Author I took it for it's first proper test ride since I've had it today. Once it was nicely warm it's fine, doesn't grab at all, so I think I can live with it for now.
