Trials Australia Forums

I know trying to diagnose clutch problems through a forum is difficult - but what the hey!

My M199 clutch is noice and light (well compared to other bulls i have owned), but it is a problem in tight turns.
When i let the clutch go, it eases out slowly to a point, then lets go in one hit at the end.
This usually happens with the front wheel on lock, which in soft/loose terrain is off setting.
(i hope that all makes sense?)
thanks

I assume your talking about a twinshock bike with a cable clutch??

Look carefully at the route the cable takes on its way down to the clutch mechanism. Make sue it''s not being pushed or pulled when you turn full lock. The cable routing could be wrong or you're cable my be the wrong type and sightly too short for the bike.

As Neo says it sounds like the cable is being 'pinched' in the turn does it happen when you turn both ways or only when you turn left?

Sorry - clutch action is at any position. only mentioned at full lock as this is when it is annoying.
Cable is free and not routed in the usual tight position.

The inter steel cable may be slightly frayed causing it to stick a bit when you're at full lock.....can you borrow a cable from someone else and try theirs?

Best of balance.
