Rekluse experts please

Hello 2012 ec300. installed recluse core and set up as recomended. So far not happy and have race saturday. have a rekluse in a 450 and it works butter smooth pro series. In the gas gas it shakes and growels and is not smooth at all in tight tecnical terrain. Only thing I like is dead engine starts are incredable. in gear hit gas as I kick and gone. holeshot king. I hope someone has a set up solution for me. I loved bike without rekluse but thought it would even be better with. so far not the case.

Anti-squeel kit installed?

not yet rekluse tec kind of made it sound like it would make the clutch lever feel weird and add more resistance. I really would like to start in gear if possable wich I can right now. Do you recomend the orings?

 

[GasGas]

I run the o-rings and all red springs. The clutch pull is butter. It works well, although I do get the growl if I lug in too high a gear. You also have to do the break in procedure and re-adjust. I'm using Rotella T.

put all 6 orings in it will be fine. I have anti squeal kit in mine and one turn and 2 tick marks. Works awesome mine made the same noise as yours. My clutch feels normal.

Mine will growl too but a quick down shift stops the noise. I consider it a reminder that I should not be in 3rd ALL of the time.

I run the anti-squeal kit, Rotella-T non synthetic oil. 1 turn plus two tick marks.

same oil I can't make mine growl at all it might as things wear some .

 

[bones150]

I put rotela oil in no difference. I will install the orings and try. What springs are everyone running and why. Thanks for the replys guys.

 

[GasGas]

I run the lighter springs for harder/faster engagement.

 

[bones150]

Thanks guys. Put blue spings and anti squeal kit in and feels better around shop. The one thing is if I pull clutch in , in gear and rev bike up it wants to surge ahead. does not fully engage. not a real problem unless you want to do mx starts.

I personally run the red springs in the EXP ring. These give the fastest, hardest hookup. If the clutch does not have full override at all rpms as you describe then something is not right.

Make sure you have the .040" steel installed in the clutch pack at the bottom just on top of the Rekluse hub. If you did not use the .040" plate the clutch pak will be too thick and you will get some of the symptoms you describe.

Also make sure there is no air in the hydraulic system.

Installing Rekluse clutch basket also takes most of noise away, unless you are 2-3 gears too high.
