hi, everyone. I was hoping someone could help me solve a mysterious problem that has had mechanics all round the country scratching their heads!

I have had a problem with my clutch!

I have a 2002 yzf r1 with only 10,000 on the clock and i have a difficulties changing gear when she's cold. She wont let me put it in to first gear without stalling. Not any problems when going up the gears. I have had the plates out and had them looked at by 3 Yamaha approved mechanics(no names mentioned eh ) but they can't see anything physically wrong with it! .

Please help Please!!!

Just taking a stab @ it here........but could it have to do with the oil you're running in it?

Also, sometimes if you shuffle those clutch plates, it can also make a difference.

Hope this helps

BTW.... to the forum CiderVisor

Thanks for the welcome, good to be here

ref; to the oil i had a top grade oil in it at the time (before it started playing up) and had it changed by one of the yamaha's dealers to no affeck.

Changing the plates around is something i have not tryed, I though they all went in a order that could not be changed (Other than cork, plate, cork, plate..........ect)

Thanks for the advise i might just have a go tomorrow at changing the plates around

That is if no one else knows any differant to help me.

Bike season is here and i've got alot of riding to catch up on!!!
