Clutch Replacement 2012 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic

How to replace the clutch plates in a 2012 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic. Even though this video is bike specific, it has a bunch of general clutch replacement tips you can use on any motorcycle!

I first tried to adjust my clutch cable (to see if that was causing my clutch issues), but my clutch got worse, not better. So, after talking to buddies who were motorcycle mechanics, I had no choice but to crack open my clutch cover. It turned out, my clutch plates (both friction and steels) were burnt (totally un-serviceable).

I have another video which I posted before this one that covers adjusting the Clutch Cable (which can cause slipping or dragging).    • Clutch Problems and Fix -WTF!? 2012 Kawasa...
