Rekulse EXP

Just put in a very slightly used Core EXP 2.0 I ended up with 3 red 3 blue ,1 turn and 3 clicks. I race enduro's . The issue I have is chatter when taking off slowly or when the clutch disengages while in the woods. I can lug it very low in 3 rd gear with no chatter but let off the gas and get back on lots of chatter. Is this normal or would I be better off with all red or all blue springs. Not sure what oil is in trans just bought bike 2011 250 . Will be putting in my normal Rotella and see if that helps. Also with the rekluse cover on I'm having issues getting on the rear brake any one ever shim out the brake.Thanks

I just went through all this on an '11 300.
The problem with chatter is not in your set-up, so much as the GG's clutch basket is just really noisey when the clutch is slipping. So any situation that makes the clutch slip, like getting on the gas hard at low RPM, will make it chatter. So, though the noise is un-nerving, its normal.

-yes, go with the plain Rotella oil.
-I had to use the anti-squeal x-rings. Still chatters, but much more tolerable.
-all red springs (lighter) will make it lock up sooner and with more authority and should thereby reduce chatter. But that may make too much drag/creep at idle. *note: The x-rings will make more drag at idle.

Its a PITA to lay the bike over and mess with it over and over until you get it right, but don't be afraid to try everything once if you have too until you get it sorted.
Get the Rotella in and do one thing at a time. I suggest this order:
-anti-squeal kit, red springs, adjust gap as required (start with where you were before at 1+3 ticks).

My issue wasn't chatter (though I wish it did so less), it was too much drag at idle. I ended up with Rotella oil, anti-squeal kit in, blue springs, 1 turn + 2 ticks. Works perfect. Again, I have a 300.

Oh, and use a little plain grease (not black moly grease!) on your gasket so you can get your cover off over and over with out goobering it up. Good Luck!!
 
Correct: Rotella T 15W-40 in the white jug for very little cash at Wally World.

And I, too, believe we're talking about the Core EXP. That's the only clutch that Rekluse makes for the Gassers.
 
Where would I get the anti squeal kit? Is it from Rekluse or a GG dealer? I have the Rekluse Core EXP ordered for my recently purchased 11' 250 and it should ship in 2-4 weeks.
 
The anti squeal kit is from Rekluse its just 6 little orings. It took away all my chatter. I ended up with 6 orings 1 turn and 2 tick marks. Does have some creep but not bad but won't stall for nothing. I can lug it so low its crazy just twist and it goes. Want to get going faster fan the clutch and hang on. Love it.
 
Awesome Silver...Thanks for the info. Can't wait to get this thing on some single track when she's dialed in. The GPR just arrived yesterday...
