Rekluse

[Scott TreadwellMember]

Hello I am fitting a Rekluse Z start Pro to my TM 300[some redesign required ]. Is there any wisdom about this postie bike clutch? I have heard only positive feedback….
I will inform the’ Bulls’ as I ride and test.
Fitting
This has been a problem…..

The fitting for a TM is non standard[Rekluse dont make one], so a CRF 450 Rekluse kit is used as the base.

I have had to use the standard TM discs and plates, and a machined TM centre- as the CRF clutch centre has a different internal spline, and the rekluse kit discs, only fits the rekluse centre.

It is normal to use the existing- standard- plates

The clutch pack once installed with the outer[pressure plate] needs to have freeplay and I am struggling at the moment with too much or two little. The adjustment is removal of plates or discs, and there is one thicker disc supplied.

But I cant get a configuration that works so I am considering machining the thrust washer under the clutch centre.

I will keep the info coming as it happens

Cheers Scott, Mal 5.1 knows a bit about them (he is pretty clued up mechanically anyway) Sutto’s are the importers and dealers for Australia if you get stuck

shame you have to do the mods, but trust me once done you will love the rekluse, i’m on my second bike with one

The only wisdom I can give you is always remember that if the motor or rear wheel stops turning the Rekluse unlocks and the bike will free wheel until you give the engine a rev. You connot roll start your bike either. Also don’t treat it like a constant velocity transmission, it only engages and disengages the clutch automatically.

On the adjustment side. Measure all the discs and plates to ensure they are within spec. I had 2 thicker discs with mine and got the freeplay correct after trying a few different combinations. You may have to do more machining since the center has already been machined. I think you can buy the thicker discs separatley as well.

Hope this helps.
