Hey, I've got a 2000 CBR600F4 and my clutch lever just went out on me. It was getting kinda bad the other day(trying to coast when stopped and clutch held in), so I adjusted it and all was fine for like 15-20 miles, and then I just went to pull it in and it came all the way in with no effort.

I'm not really sure where to start on this, I'm not sure if my bike even has a master or slave clutch cylinder. Any help as to what I would have to replace would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Craig.

 

did the cable break? Look on the right side, on top of the trans at the lever. See if it moves when you pull it. Also make sure it's still attached on both ends.

 

Yeah, that still moves.

 

Well, if the cable is moving the lever the correct amount, the problem lies inside with the clutch. Time for a tear down to inspect...

 

What would I be looking for? If it helps any I can still shift the bike without using the clutch. It's just taking off I have a problem with. Heh.

 

Haha, what an interesting find. Have you taken off the clutch case cover to make sure the cylinder part is grabbing?

 

Hello All,
I want to make sure im going to do this right. My clutch went soft on me, so i blead it again and again. Still soft and not building pressure. I have the rebuild kits for both the master cyl and the slave cyl. My question, should i replace the parts that come in the kits, then bleed at the MC banjo bolt then bleed at the Slave banjo, then bleed at the slave Bleeder? I have the Mity Vac. Is that all a waste of time? Or should i just bleed it from the bleeder, and check to see if i get pressure?

 

What bike are you speaking about? The F4 doesn't have a hydraulic clutch...

 

check the clutch lever actuator inside the clutch cover. mine broke down at the bottom before and had the same symptoms. its the pin that the cable attaches to on the clutch cover. take the cover off and look at the bottom of it.

 

Its a 2005 CBR 1000
