lt250r clutch problem

[blake b]

hey guys i just baught this 92 lt250r and when i got home with it i rode it down the street and i noticed the clutch was slipping a little but not too bad, so just to be one the safe side i put some 10w50 in the motor because thats what the guy at the motorcycle shop told me to do, but that made it slip more so it barely even going when i held it wide open so i thought the clutch lever needed to be adjusted but both of the adjustments where completly skrewed in, does it need a whole new clutch or just plates or what thanks alot

Plates and fibers if it's already adjusted all the way out. Dont use 10-50 in a two stroke. Get the 80 or 90w gear oil. I like the Honda red bottle stuff myself and I alsu use klotz as well.

so is there any way i could just tighten the clutch springs and that would fix it, or do u think the plates are trashed

First off get gear oil for a 2stroke engine, and if you said that the adjustments are screwed all the way in it still has adjustment. Screw them out to tighten it.

ok so you skrew the adjustments out to tighten it, i thought when u tightened the adjusters it made it like the clutch was pulled in

On my 300ex if there is alot of slack in the clutch cable I screw the adjustment out to tighten it. Thats what I'm goin off of. I don't know if lt's are like that or not.

the heavier oil would work best.

Screw it in to get it to slip less. When you unscrew it, it's like pulling the lever in. when you screw it in it's like letting it out. So screw it in more on one or the other.
