Dion27 Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Haven't had much luck with this 2004 banshee since I had bought it. Latest problem, ran fine last ride. Been in shed for two months, started, warmed up, selected first and with clutch still in locks up and stalls. Help please where to look?

Surfrjag Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 If its been sitting sometimes the clutch plates will stick together. Take it out so when u put it in gear your ready to go. It should go away.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wfobasheeboy Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Clutch is stuck together. This happens to mine when it sit for long time. Just like above surfrjag said get it ready and drop it in gear and go. Or you can hold the clutch in and foot on the rear brake. Then give her some gas and drop it into gear she will free right up.

trickedcarbine Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 If it won't simply come apart after a few clutch romps, then you may need to check the basket and hub for wear/grooves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dion27 Posted May 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 Thanks for the info. Is it worth while replacing clutch components or kit to prevent this happening in the future? Best place for a repair manual too please? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfrjag Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 No I wouldnt. A new clutch can do the same thing if t sits Did you search google there are multiple places to download it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 While it's warming up just start working clutch lever in/out. By time it's warm it may be better, but actually riding will work it the best. Unless basket is grooved badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dion27 Posted May 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 Thanks guys, I will check google for manuals thanks Surfrjag Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh3shee Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 This happened to me once. I held in the clutch lever and pushed the bike a few feet. At first it didn't want to move at all and then finally it broke free. As for the repair book, I bought a Clymers off ebay for $20. I was going to download it but I like having the book so I can take it with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
