I should have installed it sooner.

Mounted on SEROW-250Final
I use it mainly on forest roads, TRIAL, and occasionally for commuting.
Quantity of Washer:1 Set of 2pc. The pull is lighter than I expected, and I have a 2Finger Lever on it.
The semi-Clutch operation is now very easy.
When playing in front upetc.TRIAL style, it will be clearer by changing to no washer.
I am very happy with my purchase. View detail

Improved Clutch operation

I put in 2 Washers each.
I think that Clutch has become more disconnected and connected.
The grip on the clutch lever also feels lighter.
The brake pedal must be removed for installation.
Since the length of bolts on ClutchCase and Cover is rose, it is necessary to know the position of each bolt when it is removed. View detail

I wanted to do it because it's Custom, where you can't see it!

The work itself is relatively simple as long as you have a socket wrench
When you open the clutch cover, coolant fluid will come out in a "jopositiveobo", but it will stay within the volume of the reservoir tank, and if you keep the motorcycle tilted, the engine oil will not overflow.
I will not describe the efficacy of this product, as it would be more helpful if you visit the Manufacturer's website rather than my explanation.
I have not experienced a dramatic effect, but at least there is no demerit, such as the Clutch becoming less sharp, etc.
I am satisfied that I was able to create my own Custom within Engine? I have the satisfaction of having been able to do Custom by myself, so I give it a perfect score! View detail

Used for TY250

I used it on my Yamaha TY250S.

Normal clutch inevitably feels slightly slippery and
When I was thinking about what I could do about it, I found out about this product and bought it.

The clutch spring was also replaced with a 4mm longer one, and this product was also assembled.
We did not include the included Washer.
I didn't feel it was particularly heavy or anything.

I connected the clutch as before and the engine suddenly stalled.
Clutch has a nice on/off feel to it.
Of course, there is zero sense of Clutch sliding! 。 Large Satisfied

Essential Items for 2nd 125cc

I use it on my YZ125X, and the main way I use it is as a Motocross. 125cc often requires a little bit of aggressive traction at a moment's notice, and that's when this Retainer by Kitamura shows its power. When using the half clutch momentarily, such as just before the start of a corner or a birdie jump, I can't go back to normal because it does the job faster and in less time than normal because of the sharpness of the Engine RPM. For those who know how to use it, it is a great value for money. I tried to make it by myself before, but considering the labor involved, it is more accurate and reliable to buy it. View detail

Clutch Retainer Kit

Fits: YAMAHA TW200, YAMAHA TW225, YAMAHA SEROW225

Japanese Webike user

5/5

Focus feels like a perfect fit.

[How is it used?
While refreshing the Clutch-related Refresh of SEROW225, which has over 20,000km Judder all over the place.
If you're going to remove ClutchCase anyway. So we purchased the Clutch RetainerKit by Kitamura, which has a good reputation among the public.
How did you like it?
The condition before installation is Judder is coming out all over the place &Clutch is slipping, and the meet point is weird, plus the clutch cable is deteriorating, so the clutch wire is heavy and reluctant to move." Therefore, in addition to the clutch retainer, the clutch plates, friction plates, clutch springs, and clutch cables were replaced with new ones.
So, to be fair, the comparison is with SEROW225 WE, which has a less traveled Clutch fee ring that is not so bad.
Personally, I don't have an image of SEROW225 WE as a motorcycle with a good shift feeling. I felt that the area around the meet point was vague and my driving skills were poor.
Anodized Treatment Material:By replacing the four Aluminum collars, the time when the semi-clutch to clutch is connected is "Crunchy." or perhaps I should say Pitter-patter." It's hard to describe, but the focus of an image that had been a pin blur will be perfectly aligned (can you feel it?).
I don't know if it's good or bad that I'm having more fun in the mountains (it doesn't mean I won't fall down), and as a result, I'm more tired than usual because I'm more aggressive than usual.
Oh, and by the way, Washer is a Quantity for each Retainer.:1 pc. Spec.
How did it compare to other products?
This kind of product is Clutch RetainerKit I have never used anything else, so I cannot make a comparison.
[Points to note]
This product has a blue alumite finish, but once installed, it is completely invisible to others.
It would be a waste to replace only this product with a worn-out clutch, so it would be more effective to replace what can be replaced with something that also serves to refresh the clutch area. Retainer only replacement". although Gas Kettle, Crank Case Cover 3 (YamahaOEM Parts, price 1,430 yen) will also have to be replaced, so let's do our best to make the entire Clutch a new car +α condition.
0Other items that may be useful include
【Included Parts:presence or absence】.
Included are 4 Retainers, 8 Washers for adjustment, Instruction Manual and Sticker.
[ITEMS TO BUY TOGETHER
As I mentioned above, if the budget allows. Clutch Plates. When Friction plate. When Clutch Spring It would be cheaper in the end to purchase and work on one at a time as well.
[Opinions and requests to Manufacturer
It would be very helpful to have a Spec. that omits the Color Anodized Aluminum treatment and reduces the price just a bit more. View detail

Clutch RetainerKit

Spring was originally in good condition to sit on.
I didn't feel much effect.
I like that you can adjust the strength by adding Washer. View detail

5/5

ClutchMute clarifies

The slight lag when connecting Clutch is completely eliminated.
I was completely skeptical about it because it was introduced on Net blogs and You Tube, but I bought it because I had a few extra Points.
I wished I had installed it sooner, if at all, right after I bought my WR250R.
Since the connected timing is drilled quickly, it is possible to make a crisp shift change, and it is also easier to raise the front.
I heard that the number of washers makes the grip lighter, but since I originally installed a Hydraulic Clutch, I didn't know about that.
Also, the bolt that comes with it seems a little soft. I tightened it to the specified value by applying the tool firmly, but it almost licked a little.
Aftermarket parts are safe because only Bolt can be purchased from Kitamura's website. View detail

SP Clutch Lifter Plate

Fits: HONDA CRF125F

5/5

It's still the best!

[How is it used?
I own a CRF125F for RenBarrel. Sometimes I ride it by myself and compete in Hard Enduro events such as MINI Bypass. I like the clutch parts made by Kitamura, and I have installed them in all my motorcycles.
CRF125F is a fan motorcycle, the engine is from a business motorcycle for China, and everything tastes Large.

Was the one you received as per Image?
As per Image

Was the installation difficult?
If you remove the Kick pedal and remove the Clutch cover, the Clutch area is ready for use.

3. Put the attached Washer under the Spring and adjust the strength.
Unlike other Retainer by Kobo Kitamura, it can be reinforced by adding more Washers. I put two pieces of Clutch, but the weight of the Clutch did not bother me.
4. The end of the spring should be approximately at this position."
As you can see when you assemble it, there is a place where Spring fits nicely. Aim for that spot and build it into the car body.

How was your experience with it?
Front up is now dramatically easier, and I can turn around in a flash when cutting the Z in the middle of a hill climb. Clutch is now able to cut and connect quickly and easily.

[Included Parts:were they on?
Not particularly

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
Not at all!

Gasket remained cleanly on the Crankcase side, so I assembled it as is, but it is good to buy it as insurance. View detail

The connection & disconnection is now moderate.

The clutch on my XG250 TRICKER, which is a fast commuter train, is very loose and not well connected, so I put it to the test.
The result is Large satisfaction. 2 Washers, not too tight, but not too tight.
However, I changed Spring for WR just for the sake of it, so Clutch became heavier than I expected. View detail

I feel like people are buying it.

It seems like all the Off car people are buying and putting them on.
Everyone is buying it and I bought it to try it out.
As a result, I feel different...? and
It was about the same feeling as when I changed plugs or oil.
In theory, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it, so I think it would be a good idea to purchase it just to see if it reduces Clutch's attrition. View detail

4/5

This is good Parts

[How is it used?
I introduced it to my YZF-R25, which I use exclusively for Circuit use.
This time, the MechanicalSeal was damaged and coolant flowed into the engine.
The Clutch area was also checked for inspection, so we introduced this product, which had been on our mind for some time.
Surprisingly, the Clutch board was reusable and its thickness was no problem, so we assembled it as is.

Was the one you received as per Image?
I received the product as shown in the picture. I thought the bolt was a plating bolt from Homesen, but it seems to be a special Chromoly bolt.
Since there was no way to be sure, I trusted and used the supplied Bolt.

Was the installation difficult?
It is not difficult to simply remove the Clutch Spring and replace it with RetainerKit.
It is troublesome to have to remove the clutch cover, so the coolant also has to be removed....

How was your experience with it?
First of all, when I was putting it together, I thought to myself, Spring doesn't shake at all! I felt that this was a promising sign.
In fact, the holes in the OEM clutch pressure plate have marks where the spring has rubbed against them, and if the spring gets caught here, the feeler ring of the clutch will be very bad.

After we put it together, first of all, I felt lighter! I felt it. The half-crab is now more solid than before, and I can clearly see the ON/OFF position. You can feel that the parts are firmly connected without slipping.

By the way, I am a member of SUS441's Release Clutch Spring Pre-road SIMM We also use a combination of the two.
This product was placed in the seat of the Spring for the purpose of a pry effect and to prevent the Spring from falling off.
I personally recommend using them together!

[Included Parts:were they on?
4 Retainer/4 dedicated Chromoly Bolt/8 Washers 1.0mm for strength adjustment.
Oh, and cute kitty Sticker!

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
Nothing special, just good PARTS to experience! View detail

Clutch connected Timing is stable.

Title is everything.
My friend who is a Motorcycle shop and participates in all Japan spots said he's not sure how well it works.
I was able to experience it, which is rare for me, as I am supposed to be insensitive.

Until I built the Clutch RetainerKit, I had a hard time crossing a single bridge.
After the change, the point that fully connects from the semi-crab has become more stable, and speed control at very low speeds has become easier.

You might have to take a walk in the mountains or cross one bridge to find it. View detail

The Point of the half-crab becomes Small.

The Point to which the semi-crab connects will be clarified.
In NORMAL cars, the half-crab points are rather wide and intermittent in a blurred manner, but after installation, the width of the intermittent points is reduced to a small image, enabling more delicate control.
Even when I accidentally start off in second gear, I can start off more smoothly than before, so I can drive comfortably. View detail

Can't wait to see how it changes!

I'm planning to install a clutch lifter plate by Kitamura on my SL230 clutch!
I just did an Oil change, so I'll incorporate it into my next Oil change!
I have been told from various people that it is quite good, so I am looking forward to seeing how it changes.
I will make an imprementation when I incorporate it again. View detail
