Mechanic Monday, Clutch plates

Mechanic Monday…….Mechanic tip of the week….
Isn’t it great that the manufactures have a quick access cover for changing clutches between motos. Most (but not all) brands of metal clutch plates in your bike are cut out in a stamping press so one side of them has a radius edge and one side has a sharp edge. If you place all the radius edges facing inward toward the center of your engine the clutch will engage faster and smoother.
