5/5

Clutch operation will feel better.

Originally, there was a clattering feeling when starting and poor connection, but by replacing it with the company's Clutch Plates and adding this product at the same time, this phenomenon did not occur anymore.
Washer is Quantity for now.:1 pc. The connection is fine and there is no change in weight. It is stable.

It is expensive, but there are no negatives from putting it on.
A cat Sticker is also included.

[Attention for installation].
I think you should get a CrankGasket Cover if you don't have a new car. When I first opened it, I closed it as it was, but when I opened it again, it had a crack, so I replaced it.
If you turn the push rod (the screw at the center that adjusts the point at which the clutch breaks), you will need to readjust it. It is better not to touch it if it is not necessary at present. XT250X (perhaps SEROW or XG250 TRICKER?) had a hard time because the protrusion that serves as the adjustment guideline is deep and difficult to see. View detail

5/5

It lived up to its reputation!

Not only is it easier to raise the front end, but I can clearly feel when cutting and connecting the clutch at low speeds where the road conditions are bad or when there are bumps and gullies!
The principle was explained as suppressing Spring's vibration.
I am impressed with what I see when I use it.
The price is reasonable, but I am convinced that it is an R&D expense, and it was the right decision to install Large! View detail

Mounted on WR250F

It is still at the breaking-in stage.
Clutch is a Wire type and has been improved from a slippery Fee Ring to a spastic Fee Ring.
Clutch lightness does not seem to have changed.
It is now difficult to enter Neutral, but this area is expected to be a matter of adjustment in the future. View detail

Great!

The clutch connection used to be sluggish, but after replacing it with this one, the connection is now spasmodic, and it is easier to front up. It is the best for touring on forest roads. View detail

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

Clutch Spring Retainer

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

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!

Other items that would be helpful

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