this is with the motor not running the bike just sitting there I can push it freely without squeezing the clutch
Clutch issue
- Thread starter Mars4
- Start date
The big gear and the small gear and the clutch plate. I can hear the Piston pumping
If all those are turning, then there's nothing wrong with the clu!!!! (If you pull the clutch lever in, those shouldn't be turning)
If the piston is moving up & down too easy?, then you have a lack of compression... (which is a completely different issue from the clutch)!!

That's what I was starting to think. How do I fix the compression? Any ideas
Did you by chance have to put the piston and cylinder on? If so double check your work. It almost sounds like it doesn’t have rings on the piston.
You're no supposed to be able to turn the engine over with your fingers, there definitely something wrong.
I agree Im new to these engines. I'm not sure how to fix it. But I'd like to try instead of replacing it
Pull the cylinder off and see if the rings are broke, be careful with the bottom gasket and you can reuse it.
Rings are fine everything looks normal inside. I don't get it. I ordered new rings just to try
