When driving on urban roads or complex sections, the clutch becomes one of the components we use most frequently. The quality of clutch operation directly reflects the level of driving skills and also plays a role in protecting the vehicle. Frequent use of the clutch is highly likely to cause malfunctions.
To repair a faulty motorcycle clutch, it is essential to understand the structure and working principle of the clutch. Everyone knows that motorcycles change their gear ratios by shifting gears through a transmission, and a clutch must be used when shifting gears. How to use the clutch correctly and extend its lifespan is something that every car owner driving a manual transmission vehicle should master.
As the name suggests, clutch and disengagement are the coordinated actions such as starting, accelerating and decelerating achieved through the combination of "disengagement" and "engagement". The clutch is composed of friction plates, spring plates, pressure plates and a power output shaft. It is located between the engine and the transmission and is used to transfer the torque stored on the engine flywheel to the transmission, ensuring that the driving wheels receive an appropriate amount of driving force and torque under different driving conditions. It belongs to the category of powertrain.
The most common clutch faults are two types: one is disengagement, and the other is slippage. They are all related to the adjustment of clutch clearance.
Take the Honda 125 as an example. Many clutches do not last long. Why is that?
Among the various components of the clutch, the strength of the pressure plate spring, the friction coefficient of the friction plate, the friction coefficient of the clutch pressure plate, and whether high-quality lubricating oil is used, etc., all seriously affect the normal operation of the engine clutch. An individual's operation and maintenance habits determine the service life of the clutch.
The greater the stiffness of the spring, the higher the friction coefficient of the friction plate, the larger the diameter of the clutch, and the better the performance of the clutch.
This way, it is conducive to the flow and lubrication of engine oil, as well as the heat dissipation and cooling effect on the clutch plate and steel plate, thereby increasing the service life of the clutch.
