my bike has been sitting for a while, it wouldnt stay charged, but i think i fixed that....however, once i got it starting again, the clutch wasnt working....the rubber boot that pushes in was ripped, i have replaced that. now it still has no clutch....u can pull the lever in and it wont even roll.....any clue?....btw its a 1994 cbr 1000f hurricane

 

Clutch fluid in the reservoir? No leak by the lower bleeder?

 

i did put fluid in it...still nothing...i put dot 3 in it....then i realized it says dot 4....does it matter?.....r u selling ur cbr1000

 

You are probably going to have to bleed the clutch, sounds like the fluid all leaked out.

 

not a good thing to mix them aint going to kill anyting to quickly but not recommended. dot 4 is fancyer at high temp i think.

 

When the bike has been "alone" for a while the clutch plates get stuck together. I usually get them loosened up by jerking the bike hard front and backwards in 1:st gear a couple times with the clutch in. Just a tip if you know that the handle and hydraulic works as it should.

 

[:@]my clutch is is stuck, or just not working....im lost, i think ive tried everything i know...ive bled it, rocked it , cleaned it...i just dont know what else to do........cbr 1000f 1994

 

brook,
When you bleed it, does the handle go all the way down easy when you open the bleeder? Then after you tighten the bleeder, can you pump it up, so its hard to pull it all the way, then after you pump it up and hold it down, when you crack the bleeder does brake fluid spray out under pressure?

If it does pump up and spray out at the bleeder, it is not your master cylinder (the pumper on the handle bar). It is probably your slave cylinder (the clutch disengager) or you blew out your clutches.

Does your engine turn over when you roll the bike and kick it into gear?

WE NEED MORE INFORMATION!

 

Just start it in gear and go for a ride. It may free up if its jammed plates.

But it sounds to me like air in the system. Maybe try replacing the standard nipple with a speed bleeder

 

IF it's stuck plates and not a release problem, you can do this on the centerstand. High gear, start it up, pull in the clutch, and apply the rear brake.
