Has it been sitting for awhile and if you roll forward then switch it into gear does it shift fine. If it goes into gear while rolling the it's a clutch adjustment. If it's been sitting it's most likely tbe clutch plates are stuck together. Even though it's a semi auto it still uses clutch plates that are accessable to you.

You will have a slave cylinder either on the firewall and /or on the side of the transmission for the hydraulics of your clutch. hope that this answers your question. Good luck, and remember to rate all replies that you get. Thanx.

SOURCE: Hello, Clutch not disengaging properly

it looks like you have worn clutch plates very common on learner bikes. but do try to adjust the clutch cable first by winding the adjuster on the clutch lever. if this fails drain the eng oil and remove the left hand eng cover to get at the clutch plates. remove the springs by turning retaining bolts about 6 of them. then your clutch plates will slide out off the drum any bent steel plates even a little replace. any dark or burnt friction plates also replace, usually done all in one go and quite cheap to do . fit new parts in exactly reverse order dont forget new oil re set cable and off you go p.s also check clutch basket for tiny notches from plate wear if very little a gentle file will sort this

It is a pit bike not a regular clutch like on a 250 RM

All depending whether or not your pit bike is semi automatic or manual ,if it's manual then it's similar but it has less plates and usually you need a special castle nut socket to undo it .if it's semi auto it has a odd clutch actuator mechanism in the way with 3 balls n it you have to take off first.

Yamaha Pw80 clutch

The PW80 does not have a manual hand lever clutch, its a 3 speed semi auto. The bike will jerk and shut off when put in gear. If I put it in gear while rolling then it will work. Any ideas?

When i put my 1987 Yamaha Virago in gear, it dies

Yamaha motorcycles of this vintage often have issues with their kickstand switch. This switch can be disabled by clipping the two wires that go into the switch and wiring them together--the kickstand switch is normally closed (letting current flow) when the stand is up; the switch is open when the kickstand is down.
This is more afield than your electrical concerns, but if the clutch plates have bonded together, the bike will stall when you put the bike into gear. The bike will start and idle fine, but basically, you don't have a working clutch, so the bike will stall out when you dump it into gear while at a standstill. You can test for this by starting the bike and having someone push the bike to get up to a little speed, then trying to shift into 2nd gear. If the bike lurches forward before stalling or keeps running, you have a clutch, not an electrical issue.
Folks sometimes get lucky, and working the clutch plates a few times will free up the sticking plates. I have had this problem with a mid-1970s vintage Honda that I don't ride very often. Eventually, the clutch plates free up and the bike is good to ride again.
Good luck!

Why does my yz 80 1993 stall when im not moving and i put it in gear, (the bike has to be rolling to be pust in gear)

Your clutch is grabbing, adjust the cable so that it pulls harder on the clutch. If this does not help you may need to take the cluth out and inspect it for bad springs or damage

We have a 1997 yamaha pw8oj bike. The problem we have encountered is when the bike is engaged into first gear it wants to stall the bike. There is no clutch slippage . There is no clutch lever on this...

hi i would still remove the clutch unit to have alook at the plates as it sounds like a badly worn clutch these dont slip when worn as its a semi auto clutch

I was wandering if I need to replace my clutch.

Have you tried adjusting your clutch cable? If the clutch was bad you would rev the engine in gear but the bike would not speed up as it should because the clutch was slipping. But if your cable is out of adjustment pulling the lever may not be disengaging the clutch. You should find the adjustment at the clutch lever, should be a larger locknut and a smaller adjusting screw. You want about 1/2" of freeplay in the lever before it starts disengaging the clutch.

Did it stall with a big **** like you didn't pull in the lever or did it just die? If it died, maybe the sidestand switch is faulting, killing the engine because it thinks your kickstand is still down.
