Selecting the Best Yamaha Banshee Clutch Kit

The 19 disc clutch kits are an ideal upgrade for any Yamaha Banshee. This kit enables you to significantly increase your torque capability compared to using the original clutch. With this 19 disc assembly, you get to eliminate clutch slippage on upgraded Yamaha Banshees as well as supplying a long clutch life to a standard engine. That’s due to the extra discs that share the torque and allow it to easily handle around 70 ft-lb of torque. Running a highly modified or race engine? Check out our 25 disc clutch kit, which handles over 90 ft-lb of torque for maximum performance.

Having the hard anodized clutch basket enables you to enjoy the modularity as well as the added durability. Furthermore, these baskets help protect the transmission even when you are riding in extreme trail conditions. These anodized baskets and pressure plates also offer tightly controlled tolerances to provide you with smooth operation of your Yamaha banshee. Besides, you get to enjoy reduced clutch noise, vibrations and less drag compared to a lock up clutch.

Installing a Clutch on Your Yamaha Banshee

Our kits lets you handle the installation by yourself so you won’t spend lots of money on labour. To install your clutch, you will need:

• Clutch kits
• Oil
• Service manual
• Ratchet and socket set
• Clutch cover gasket

Installation steps:

• Jack your Yamaha banshee to help drain the oil. Taking out the filler cap enables the oil to flow out faster.
• To get to the old clutch, you must remove the crankcase cover. Check the clutch cover gasket and change it if worn out.
• Remove your clutch housing cover using your tools.
• Unloosen and remove all pressure plate bolts.
• Remove the steel plates or clutch fibers. 
• Remove the main basket nut to remove the original baskets.
• Replace any worn parts and reverse these steps for the reinstall.

Benefits of Replacing a Worn-out Banshee Clutch

Replacing a banshee clutch enables you to enjoy better power management on your Yamaha banshee. Besides getting an upgraded kit will provide you with more traction and power. Replacing the clutch ensures that it’s at the optimal operating condition. Meaning that there will be lots of feel and no slip or loss of power. Furthermore, placing some load on the system helps you feel the engagement of the transmission and enjoy the power transfer.

If you use your Yamaha banshee off road, you will discover that a new clutch kit will be crucial to handle any heat. That’s because it will be able to properly cool and circulate oil. Doing this also increases the lifespan of the new clutch. It’s a unique way of ensuring that you can enjoy the reliability of the new clutch and have some peace of mind when riding on all types of trails. Picking a good banshee clutch will guarantee that your Yamaha will be in tip top shape.
