[Usher4566]

My clutch when pulled in does not fully engage .so wheel turns when clutch pulled in.I've ordered plates and springs do you think they will cure it.

Probably just need to do a routine adjustment to the clutch cable.

[Martay]

Id certainly try adjusting it properly before ordering parts. If you cant, pop it in somewhere,quick adjustment for beer money

Hold on, quick point do you mean the bike pulls you forward with the clutch in or when the wheel is off the ground it turns?

Wet clutch = viscous coupling = wheel will turn while the bike's up on its stand.

If you can stop it easily enough with your hand, then there's no problem.

You need to set/check the clutch pushrod first. Slacken the cable at both ends. Where the cable goes into a side engine case you will find the locknut/screw for the pushrod. You may have to remove the cover, you may have a large rubber bung covering it. Undo the locknut and back it off a few turns. With a screwdriver turn the slotted head adjuster until it lightly seats. Now back it off a quarter of a turn. Hold it in this position and tighten the lock nut. Finally adjust the cable to give you the correct freeplay (around 5mm at the lever). This is a general guide, you have got a workshop manual ? From you sig at the bottom I take it we are talking about a cd200? I doubt its clutch plates or springs as these are plod to work type bikes and p/o generally dont slip clutches and hoik wheelies

[Vincent]

If you suspect the clutch, it's usually easy to take apart and measure the thickness of the friction plates and length of the springs. The tolerances will be in the workshop manual. All you need is a micrometer or decent vernier gauge.
