sherco trials 300 2016. heavy cluch

Featured Replies

Hi, friends.

I have a Sherco 2016 st300 trials bike.

The clutch's too heavy.

I'd like to know the clutch replacement cycle.

The manual says the clutch is up to 2.6 millimeters thick.(per 1 plate)

When I measured mine, four were 2.6 millimeters and two were 3 millimeters.

I don't know why there are two 3 millimeters in here.I wonder if this is how the new clutch pack works.

And the total is 24.0 millimeters.

Let me know the thickness of them when combined.

Or tell me if I need to replace clutch mineral oil.

Thank you, fellas.

You have 6 clutch springs.  Take 2 of them out.  It will be 33% easier to pull in.

Really? That's a good discovery. I'll give it a try. Thank you so much.

The reason there are two thicker plates is the racing friction clutch from 2014 models. Maybe stiffer springs that are reason for heavier pull. 

Have you tried do drive with 4 springs? Any suggestions?

What do those design engineers know anyway,  they probably put in extra springs just for fun 🤔🤔🤔

Any experience with the "four spring clutch" by now? 

Any other suggestions to get the clutchpull a bit lighter?

Assuming the clutch mechanism is working correctly, lighter weight springs is an option. 

Sure but does the clutch slip? Probably depending on the oil used. 

Where can i buy the softer springs in europe?
