Re: Possible New Clutch req.
How many miles has it done and what year?
Fingers crossed it’s not the spline. Hopefully it’s a shagged our disc in which case have a think about the replacement. Available now with a longer ???? Brain fade, can’t think what the centre part is called! Help!

Re: Possible New Clutch req.
What have you been doing to it my 1100s had done 62000 miles when I sold it and the clutch was still good. Are you sure its not contaminated with oil or damp rot damp through neglect
There would appear to be a surfeit of prolixity and sesquipedalian content today please do not use a big word when a singularly un-loquacious and diminutive linguistic expression will satisfactorily accomplish the contemporary necessity

Riding it, more than any other owner of it

Possibly but is there another way of finding out other than splitting the bike apart ? Tell me.

Re: Possible New Clutch req.
There was a trick with Juddering clutches that were contaminated (especially Ford Sierras) and that was brakes on into gear and slipping the clutch til it ponked then let it cool down. This had the effect of drying out the Clutch and knocking off any high spots. If you had a serious leak from gearbox or engine I think it would show by seeping out and dripping then it would be time to split it apart. Not done it to an 1100 but did put a new Gearbox into 1200ST - not hard but fiddly getting the rear sub frame and suspension out of the way without splitting brake lines

Now then Tuetonic (can't shorten your forum name anymore than that )
Interesting, can't do any harm trying I guess . Allan Jefferies said "They have to split the bike in half, basically separate the engine and gearbox to change the clutch" Point is, I need a clutch, it's not like I can get away without one

Re: Possible New Clutch req.
Had a problem with the gear box in my R1200S.
Walked past it twice in the work shop before I released that the pile of bits was my bike!
They are literally split in half to get at the clutch

Re: Possible New Clutch req.
hey up, bin there, done that. interesting job to do. Loads of How to`s on the web.
I think BMW`s assertion that the clutch is a dry one is a wee misleading at times!
Good luck, wanna buy a mint gixxer whilst your bcr is in bits?

Re: Possible New Clutch req.
Nice courtesy bike! So the garage are doing the repair?
This is the modified clutch plate from Motorworks ... Clutch friction plate replacement with longer splines CLA33264. The extra cost has got to be worth it for piece of mind.
Drilling the slave cylinder is also worth considering.
